not able to install UBUNTU

[ghastinos]

I'm trying to install UBUNTO on my new machine hp 15-dw3000 like I did  on my previous machine. i used refus to burn the iso file on my disk thumb. After choosing the language on the UBUNTU installation screen there's a message saying "You need at least 8.6GB disk space to install Ubuntu. The computer has only 8.0GB" which is the size of my disk thumb ... I think it means UBUNTU doesn't detect the hard drive what shloud I do to fix this problem thank you so much

I'm sorry, but HP does not provide support for Linux distros.

IF you replace the preloaded Windows OS with a Linux distro, or add a Linux distro, then you assume full responsibility for maintaining that -- including solving any problems with booting the other OS and/or installing the other OS.

Modern PCs with UEFI, instead of the older BIOS, are especially difficult to install because you have to go into the UEFI settings and make several changes before you can even boot from a USB stick -- and we are unable to assist in that work.

Your best bet for support now is to contact the support forum of the distro you are using.

Since you are using Ubuntu, go here: https://ubuntuforums.org/

Good Luck
