A Year with the Surface Go

How exactly do you do that? I have been using windows on my surface go solely because I gave up trying to figure out all the secureboot settings and how to turn enough things off to get a live USB to boot. I would love to switch, but it was so difficult and I never did accomplish it!

If you can get to the firmware settings, there should be an option to 'disable secure boot', 'enable third-party OS's' or the like. Then you should be able to boot anything that has been properly signed, at least. I'm quite sure that people have done this, even on the Surface Go.

Ubuntu support secure boot. You probably mean fastboot?
