How to install to a new HP Laptop? - PinStripe - 25th November 2016
Hey, I just purchased a new HP laptop on a Black Friday special and am trying to set up a dual boot system, even though I already HATE WinBlows 10!! I went in and disabled the secure boot in the bios, but still cannot get this thing to boot off the internal dvd drive. What else do I need to do to make this work?
HP Notebook
Model: 15-ba051wm

Hi,
I have a HP laptop, other model, but similar model.
Well, I don't have in this laptop dual boot, in this laptop only I have Maui.
I think, is better boot with usb that boot with DVD.
For boot with dvd and/or usb you don't need disabled secure boot.
In my laptop I have enabled secure boot and boot with usb without any problem.
You need change cms in your bios.
And you need burn in usb and start/boot in uefi mode, because your windows are installed in uefi.
Regards.

I have tried booting from internal dvd and USB dvd. I set secure boot disabled and Legacy enabled and it comes up in the boot menu. But every time I try to boot from either dvd, it prompts me with, "Memory allocation failed: out of memory."
I don't understand how I can be out of memory in the boot process. Though this laptop does come with 8 gigs on board.

Also please check the sha256sum of the downloaded ISO if it is the same as we provide on our download page.

I finally got the OS to install... but now when I re-boot the laptop, it instantly boots to WinBlows!
How do I get Maui to boot?

Did you maybe installed in UEFI mode? Or how did you managed to install it?
If yes then you can use the Uefi/BIOS boot menu to start Maui.
Otherwise it might've not installed correctly as by default it should offer a bootloader to boot it.

By booting it with uefi basically.

We just released an updated ISO 2.1, you could see if that works better.
