Feedback on the HP Pavilion Sleekbook 14 - kobe4

Asked by Janak

Tried to boot from the usb flash drive with the iso image on it but the system did not boot from usb drive despite seting:
- disable legacy secure boot
- boot priority to CDROM/USB
in the BIOS.

COntacted HO technical support and they told me that this laptop does not support boot from any other OS than Windows due to restrictions in the motherboard.

If anybody can help me in solving this problem that would be great.

Thanks veyr much

This is because of the secure boot of your laptop firmware.

Please enable secure boot ( I suppose it is typo that you used the word "legacy") and
use the Ubuntu image supporting secure boot.
For example, Ubuntu trusty.

Can you help with this problem?
