HP Pavilion X360
Linux

I am looking for a way to Completely DISABLE the Intel RST BIOS. The reason being I want to upgrade the Operating System from Windows 10 to Linux Mint 19.1.

 

The computer is an HP Pavilion X360 Laptop (HP 15-cr0037wm) with the F.22 BIOS (8 Nov 2018). It has been upgraded to 8 GBytes of RAM (2 x 4 Gbytes), removal of the SATA3 mechanical drive and installation of a Crucial P1 one terabyte NVMe PCIe drive. I did a clean uefi install of Windows 10 to the new NVMe drive and it is operating normally. I would now like to insatll Linux Mint 19.1 in dual boot mode however the Linux can not detect the NVMe drive. I suspect this problem is caused by the embedded Intel RST BIOS which I can find no way to totally disable.

Sorry to necropost, but I too have the same problem and have not found the answer yet.
