ok so then it's pretty easy. I would recommend you boot the live environment (USB ISO) and first test stuff out thoroughly. all the i/o for audio , video, and network/ bluetooth

#

if satisfied, then run the installer up, and choose 'erase and install' at the appropriate page in it.

#

oh, and first open the app named Disks, make sure linux can actually SEE your internal drive, cuz some technology like RST blocks this

#

see our #1295728709306683482 INDEX for more tips
