I can not boot linux as I can not disable the secure boot. This is a computer I had been trying to dual boot, but now we have removed the one drive with win7 so that there is only a drive with linux, and the native hard drive that is inaccessible/locked
It seems like I'm getting closer to being able to boot up linux, but the remaining problem is that I can no longer disable secure boot. The option is there but it cannot be selected or changed. In addition, I have already set an administrator password (there is no supervisor option) and it is still impossible.
I'm still pretty new to all of this lol
update: the two options my prof and I are now leaning towards are 1) wiping this comp and just updating widows and running linux through a windows subshell, or building a new computer since this is the oldest work station in the lab anyway. So the problem wasn't fixed, per se, but based on how each time I fixed a problem to do with dual booting another problem popped up that took me a bunch of time and sanity to solve I'm thinking that continuing to work on this is no longer worth the time in comparison to other possible solutions, rip
