Latitude E7440 boot menu
Hello,
I am trying to install Linux, but I don't know how I can access the boot menu.
Can you please help me access it.
The tutorial for installing Linux that I am following is this one:

F12 at powerup will get you the boot menu.

When I try to do what you suggested it doesn't work, it just sends me to a menu that I do not recognise by watching the video I linked in the main post.

If your bootable drive does not appear in the boot menu when you press F12, the system does not recognize it as bootable. If your system is set for UEFI boot (and particularly if it's set for secure boot ON), there are plenty of stock Linux boot images that won't work -- they need to be modified in order to work with UEFI and secure boot.
Check with the support community for the specific Linux distribution you're trying to install.

I am trying to install Linux Ubuntu 20.04 LTS.
How can I change those settings?
I am trying to dual boot it with Windows 10 Pro.
