Thank you for the replies.
Q1. When you ran the installer, did you get a message window about other OS
being installed and whether to continue in UEFI mode?
YES.
Q2. If you tried to start the live CD again on that machine, could you get
us the output of the following commands, before you run the installer at
all?
NO. My apologies but I can't.
Because at that time i was running the said machine in "CSM mode"
and every distro is getting installed in that mode (including 16.04.1
mentioned previously). But after getting the error with UMATE 16.10 , i
changed few things. I formated 1st partition, created an ESP partition,
disabled "CSM mode" and re-installed UMATE 16.10 (without any errors). That
is why i replied this late.
The output of "archdetect" says *amd64/efi* . Does this value changes? (I
mean is it logical or does it represent something physical).
I am using brand new built (hope it helps):- ASUS Pro Gaming Z170, i5
6600K, Corsair Vengeance LPX 4 GB DDR4 2400Mhz etc..
One last thing, the UMATE 16.04.1 (on other partition) used to give an
error at boot time but after creating ESP partition and disabling CSM mode
from UEFI it stopped. I dont remember it exactly but it read something like
this:- "drmi915 gem init stolen with stolen memory region some hexadecimal
addresses".

I was expecting that it is not going to boot at all because i got an error during the installation, which interrupted the installation, and then pc rebooted.
4.
I Was installing "ubuntu mate 16.10" when this happened [Note that i already have Kubuntu 16.04.1 and ubuntu mate 16.04.1 installed on other separate partitions.]. I was following the standard installation process i.e. selected language (en-US), Keyboard layout (US), checked download updates during installation, and install third party software.
I believe the "install third party software" option led me to "turn off secure boot" option, which i did by giving it a random password, which led me to an error during installation. Then, the pc rebooted.
After this i booted into kubuntu (since i didnt see any ubuntu mate 16.10 in grub menu), and updated the grub then booted into ubuntu mate 16.10 which led me to this error.
