Before you do anything, create restore media, test the restore media (I have a few models it failed and those are still under discussion with its maker.) And then we are ready for the BIOS change to turn off secure boot, turn on Corporate Stable Mode and see if it still works.
At this point the usual Ubuntu can be installed.
