I'm running Ubuntu 16.04 and ran into some issues whilst installing. One was regarding NDIS, but the other was more concerning to me and pertained to NVIDIA. Here's the `apt-get` results:

:: Code ::

$ apt-get install linux-image-liquorix-amd64 linux-headers-liquorix-amd64

The following packages were automatically installed and are no longer required:
  libllvm3.8 libllvm3.8:i386 libmircommon5 libmircommon5:i386 python3-pyinotify snap-confine ubuntu-core-launcher
Use 'apt autoremove' to remove them.
The following additional packages will be installed:
  libelf-dev linux-headers-4.14.0-10.1-liquorix-amd64 linux-image-4.14.0-10.1-liquorix-amd64
Suggested packages:
  linux-doc-4.14
Recommended packages:
  firmware-linux-free
The following NEW packages will be installed:
  libelf-dev linux-headers-4.14.0-10.1-liquorix-amd64 linux-headers-liquorix-amd64 linux-image-4.14.0-10.1-liquorix-amd64

See this thread for running Liquorix on frozen pool distros.

Liquorix does not support non current frozen pool distros but that thread shows what to do for that end.

Possibly it's more an issue of his version of the driver not being compatible with the 4.14 kernel. Maybe using the 387 drivers from this PPA would build: launchpad.net/~graphics-drivers/+archive/ubuntu/ppa

@stevenpusser's suggestion is spot on and did the trick. I was able to get everything working perfectly on Ubuntu 16.04 via:
:: Code ::
sudo add-apt-repository ppa:graphics-drivers/ppa
sudo add-apt-repository ppa:damentz/liquorix && sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get install linux-image-liquorix-amd64 linux-headers-liquorix-amd64
sudo apt-get install nvidia-387

Yeah, I had to patch the Debian Stretch 375.82 Nvidia driver for it to build on 4.14, and that's in my OBS backport repo for Debian users, but Ubuntu uses different packages for the driver, so I disabled those builds.
