HP Spectre x360 - 13-ac003no
Microsoft Windows 10 (64-bit)

Hi,

 

    I am about to buy HP Spectre x360 - 13-ac003no laptop , and since am a student i am in a need to dual boot the laptop with Kali Linux.

 

   As there are lots of issues revolving around in the internet on kali linux. I want to know whether kali linux runs perfectly on HP Spectre x360 - 13-ac003no . If not what all the things like , audio,wifi, touch screen etc... will ?? or will not work ?? . 

 

Kindly provide me some inputs on this , as my decision to buy is based on the support to kali linux

 

Thanks,

Aravind.

Hello;

Allow me to welcome you to the HP forums!

 

HP only warranties their PCs for usage with the OS that comes preinstalled. IF you replace that or add a different OS, then you assume full responsibility for maintaining that other OS -- as HP then provides no assistance on that.

Win10 PCs nearly all use UEFI and that poses special problems for installing Linux distros: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=2147295

Your best bet for Linux support, since HP does not provide Linux drivers, is to contact the support forum for the Linux distro you are trying to install.

Good Luck
