2017-11.11 ISO works (livemode and hd installed)on alienware 17 R3. Booting non-free and free nvidia works but in non-free nvidia not actually loaded still nouveau. Therefore, either free or non-free gives nouveau both in livemode or hd installed.
2017-11.11 iso now installed in my laptop, might be able to supply you info just let me know.
