XPS 9370 Ubuntu image
Hi,
installin windows 10 dual boot on xps developer edition I have accidentally deleted also recovery partition. I'd like to recover the original patition schema and start over again but is impossible to download the ubuntu image from dell support center!
Or the download never start or it complete in a couple of second and the iso file is corrupted....
With the installation iso can i restore the disk at the factory state?
How can i download that iso?
Thank you

If under warranty, you will need to contact Dell.

The link works for me and after giving the laptop ST, it shows "Ubuntu16.04 ISO for XPS 9370 2.07 GB" and a download button but when I click on download I get this error message:
No driver found. We're sorry. We couldn't find the file you are looking for. It may be that the link you followed to get here is not working. Try checking the URL/address for errors or visit the Support page and select your product to begin a new search.

I have the same issue as 4m1rk
It shows the correct ISO for the right product but the download link simply does not work.

Cannonical Non-dell customised UBUNTU 18.04 Bionic LTS (stable)
Link with latest updates pre-installed:
http://cdimage.ubuntu.com/bionic/daily-live/
U will see a folder with today's date, open it (DONT OPEN YESTERDAY"S FOLDER)
Download file : bionic-desktop-amd64.iso
These are generic ISOs released by Canonical, and works pretty well on my system.
Dell customised Ubuntu images are not listed in their servers, hence u will be unable to dwnld ( even if u had ubuntu out of the box)
I am in contact with Advanced Resolution Team & they're on it!!
For now, satisfy ur thirst with the link I gave^

First of all, thanx.
I've also mailed them, expecting they will fix the broken link to Ubuntu16.04 ISO for XPS 9370.

Link is still broken. Dell OS Recovery Tool still says download is corrupt. What gives Dell?!?

I've just installed vanilla Ubuntu 18.04 LTS on Dell XPS 13 9370 (i forgot to mark full disk encryption earlier).
Did i miss something? from Dell Ubuntu ISO... there were some Dell apps for battery optimisation etc. ? something else ?

There is support but its not free.
Support is through the Ubuntu Advantage support plan. Prices start at $150 per year per server and $250 per year with a minimum of 10 virtual servers. The latter plan includes work week online and phone technical support. There's also a desktop plan, which will run you $150 per year per desktop with a minimum order of 50 desktops.
The generic 18.04.2 seems to be fine.

You will want to install extras that are not there by default.
https://wiki.ubuntu.com/BionicBeaver/ReleaseNotes/ChangeSummary/18.04.2
sudo apt install libdvdcss2 libdvdread4 libdvdnav4 ubuntu-restricted-extras
sudo apt install libdvd-pkg
you need to configure the package using dpkg so that it installs the required dependencies.
sudo dpkg-reconfigure libdvd-pkg
This will configure libdvdcss2
you’ll be asked whether you want automatic updates for libdvdcss2 say yes with enter on keyboard
Brasero and VLC is also useful
sudo apt-get install brasero
sudo apt-get install vlc
sudo apt-get install exfat-fuse exfat-utils
Setting the region on the drive may also be necessary
sudo apt-get install regionset
I use an external Blueray USB drive and everything runs as I expect.
