I’ve also got the Linux Basics for Hackers book but it’s at home while I’m on vacation.
I’m just really happy rn yall :) this install took some work, SecureBoot kept getting in the way and I’m not the most savvy person so there was a lot of Googling and trial and error in the way of getting here.
Yeah honestly once I got past my BIOS problems everything else has been a breeze. Driver install and updates all went flawlessly. I played around with Linux a tiny bit in decades past (usually just to fix something and get back to Windows), so I was a little concerned about it at first, but, as they say… shit just works 🤷♂️
