I can make my HP Pavilion 15-ab125ax to dual boot.

[iPAHeartBeat]

As I need to work around about development on Linux based tool I am looking to make my notebook Dual boot with HP OEM Windows 10 Home Single Language (Licenced and shipped with Notebook by HP) and Ubuntu Linux. I have all rec

but however, my Notebook BIOS runs with secure / UEFI boot-up sequences I can't  Install any Linux on my notebook. the worst part is even I can't run live Linux from CD or USB Media. 

When I tried to disable Secureboot and enable legacy mode for boot, I can boot from CD / USB but once I select the option to run Linux without Install (Live) or Try to install, it will stop after few second.

For Infomation:

Model: 15-ab125ax

CPU: AMD A10 8700

RAM: 16 GB

HDD: 1 TB (200 GB For Windows, 200 +300 GB Reserved for Data, 200 Unlocated to install Linux)

Current OS: Windows 10 Home Singe Language (Updated to  Windows 16072 just on 24th May 2017)

Trying to Install: Ubuntu Linux 16.x

Hello @iPAHeartBeat

Welcome to the HP Support forum.

This is tricky. Your device comes with Windows 10 in UEFI Secure boot mode and is made to run with this OS. Not designed to run another OS. I understand your needs because I am also GNU/Linux user (my primary OS).

Generally speaking both need to be in the same mode - UEFI Secure boot on 

or   Legacy mode on + secure boot off

Since the OEM Windows 10 is UEFI on mode with Secure Boot, Ubuntu should also be in this mode.  Modern versions of Ubuntu — starting with Ubuntu 12.04.2 LTS and 12.10 — will boot and install normally on most PCs with Secure Boot enabled. This is because Ubuntu’s first-stage EFI boot loader is signed by Microsoft. However, a Ubuntu developer notes that Ubuntu’s boot loader isn’t signed with a key that’s required by Microsoft’s certification process, but simply a key Microsoft says is “recommended.” This means that Ubuntu may not boot on all UEFI PCs. Users may have to disable Secure Boot to to use Ubuntu on some PCs.

I suggest you also try with 14.04 LTS version.

You may post over Ubuntu forums such as Ask Ubuntu or Ubuntu Communities for more information.

Eventually, you may end up erasing Windows partitions at all, install clean Linux in Legacy Mode and eventually run Windows 10 in a Virtual Machine (VM) such as VirtualBox from Oracle. Free Windows virtual machines > https://developer.microsoft.com/en-us/microsoft-edge/tools/vms/

Hope this helps.
