    The ONLY thing I don’t like about it is having to finish the install of windows before you can wipe the ssd.

    Why? Can’t you get to the bios, change to usb boot loader, boot linux and wipe the disk?

      You’d think you could… but you can’t even get to the bios before finishing the install.

      There’s probably a way… But I wasn’t able to find it.

        Probably some fastboot shit. I like the idea of fastboot… if only it wasn’t so tied to Windows.

        I had the same on my second hand thinkcentre. It was the only 10 seconds I spent on windows 11: input random data, enter the OS and shutdown the machine. Never touched win 11 again.
