RedHat OS boot in Dell Inspiron Windows OS

IMG_5172.jpgI have Dell Inspiron 3880 with Windows OS, and I want to boot with RedHat OS 8.0. I have downloaded  RedHat OS iso image file and mount on drive but have no idea how to boot the  RedHat OS 8.0 from the boot manager. Please give me steps I tried different options (BIOS Setup) published in Dell but not able to follow it. I don't want to boot from CD/USB. Please confirm I could boot from the drive or any other option available. Any input is highly appreciated.

There was an update to Secure Boot in 2020 which addresses a GRUB2 exploit. This means it blocks all the previous Linux distributions that used to pass Secure Boot. Ubuntu 20.04.1 (and Ubuntu flavours) and Mint 20.1 have been updated to pass a patched Secure Boot. Fedora 33 (also made by Redhat) does not so you will likely need to DIsable Secure Boot.

Dell does not support any version of linux unless its pre installed by dell for that model.

  • All three Dell Precision mobile workstations are shipping with the Ubuntu 18.04 LTS (Bionic Beaver) operating system and are certified for Red Hat Enterprise Linux 8.0.
