So I got a new HP Victus 2023, and I want to install Fedora on it, it has an RTX 4050 and has win11 preinstalled, my last laptop was a 2014 Toshiba and I only had to disable secure boot for Linux to run, is there something else to disable before installing Fedora ? Maybe TPM?

    You need to disable secure boot for the installation process, but you can turn it back on afterwards. Secureboot just blocks the changes your new install needs to make once its installed it wont mess with anything, and you should have it on to prevent things like rootkits.

      It can cause issues with things like virtual machines but that just means you need to configure them to work with it.
