Ah. Yeah, that makes all of it a bit more dicey. And I hadn't realized it was Android. I was looking at the laptops, not the "book". >> Won't cost you anything except the use of a thumbdrive or blank CD and >> your time.

Uhm, dunno about that. I'd suspect it's a 64-bit UEFI BIOS, but Lenovo often has their own ideas about what's needed. The machine comes with Android Marshmallow (6) and I'm not sure what requirements that has as far as UEFI is concerned. >> I have read that others have installed Ubuntu onto Yogas and beyond >> some teething problems with the on-screen keyboards, gestures and >> mouse clicks (somewhat similar to what Alexis says below), it seems to >> work. > The problem with this device is that without keyboard you are really stuck. I guess there's a possibility of using a USB keyboard if you have issues. That being said, if this is going to be your primary machine and you're on a budget, you may not want to be the David on this. If you can afford it and have the time, I'm sure the community would LOVE to have someone sort this out. I'd be interested (oh, gawd, just what I need...another bloody computer!) >>> Le mardi 07 février 2017 à 15:39 -0500, Billy Davis a écrit : >>>> I just installed CentOS 7.3 on a Lenovo Twist Ultra Laptop.
