Hi guys,
Finally I got a new laptop
Asus X415F, i3 processor, and Windoze unfortunately. But will over write ( single boot EOS)
I got to BIOS canged boot order to start from USB flash disk.
For now I just want to test EndeavourOS Live session to be sure everything is working as supposed to be.
Should I leave secure boot enabled or should I disable it?
Anything to do to be sure I will have a function key to let me to the BIOS or other function keys?
@dalto for help as usual.
Sure I want to EOS.
What worried me that during boot (to windoze) I didn’t see anything saying press F2, or Fx to enter BIOS
I went to BIOS through windoze settings…
How to be sure I have an option to go to BIOS during boot? If disabled I will not be able to boot to windoze I think and no way to BIOS then.
How to be sure I have an option to go to BIOS during boot after disabling secure boot?
It is still possible but definitely better to fix before hand.
More than likely.
You might need to change the “OS” to be something other than Windows 10+ in the BIOS or it might be a specific named setting. You can just go through the settings and experiment.
I will gladly install on full disk and eleminate the preinstalled windoze!
(I just got irritated and nervous because I had to go through it when I got it out of the box - believe it or not, brand new, first boot out of the box and it it gave me a few error messages!)
Hopefully will be posting to you in a few minutes after installing EndeavourOS.
I will do my best not to “kill” this machine as I always do!
First thing to do after booting my system is to post a great thank you for all of you here in this thread and for all the community, developers, moderators… everybody.
I really appreciate your patience with me and your understanding.
So, I have to thank @joekamprad for it, and I never thought ever I would thank a robber for steeling something and encourage him to keep steeling as much as he can for the welfare of our wonderful community.
