I just recently graduated from college and my laptop was reset to factory defaults before I took it home and I now completely own it. I am trying to put OpenSUSE on it, instead of Windows 8.1 that is on it now. I made a bootable OpenSUSE USB, verified by using it on another computer and I was able to boot from it. However, I cannot get the HP ZBook 15 G2 to boot from it. List below is things I have done.
- I have made sure Secure Boot is off
- I have made sure Fast Boot is off
- I have changed it to legacy mode in the boot options
- I have changed the legacy boot order to put all USB devices before the HDD in the ZBook.
I would put screenshots, but can you even do screenshots of the BIOS? I don't know.
I am pretty much a noob in my IT career (its what I went to college for and my bachelor is in) and I could easily be missing something simple, but none of the research I have done and everything I tried has helped, so I am asking for help from more experienced people.
