Hello all. I bought a omnibook 5 16 bgxxxx. I need to turn it into a dual boot (w11 and Ubuntu) machine, but  is impossible for me booting from a pen drive device (yes, I did all the previous logical steps). Option EFI in the boot menu only shows a a list of volumes without any sense. What's wrong? Thank you in advance.

To dual boot Windows 11 and Ubuntu on an HP laptop, you first need to disable Secure Boot and Fast Boot in the BIOS/UEFI settings

 

This will help us narrow down the cause and suggest the best fix
