I was describing the steps one needs to go through to get a Gnu/Linux system installed on a laptop. I did it a month or two ago. It's not as easy as it was in the past because of secure boot. You must use the pre-installed OS to disable the secure boot: you _cannot_ do it from the bios. On

On my programming laptop, my entire disk is LUKS encrypted and has been since ~2005. Debian (and now Devuan (no systemd)) made it easy. You do have to type in a password on boot, 20+ characters long naturally. The longer the better, the more convoluted, the more insane... the way to go.
