ubuntu installation on hp.net laptop

[bruce]

Hi Ian,

looking at the hp  17z-cp300  amd ryzen 5 7530.  $370.

I have no clue as to any of the ech specs. I'm going to try to get to
the TechSupt of HP tomorrow to see if I can get data.

Short of that, i might purchase the item, and get my hands on it to
see what it might have.

The goal would be to install liveusb/Ubuntu, and to see if I can use a
sub/wifi. But I'm not sure if this would entail massaging the
/etc/hardware with wifi mod files.

I'm not sure if I could/can/shold open the boz to insert a wifi
replacement module either.

thoughts/comments?
