You're experiencing a boot issue where the Windows 11 ARM installer launches but restarts immediately after. This could be due to incorrect partitioning, conflicting boot entries, or driver issues. Check the boot order in BIOS/UEFI and ensure both OSes are properly configured. Also verify that your USB drivers are up to date and consider using a clean installation media for testing. Let me know if you need further help!

Mainline Linux doesn't fully support the Snapdragon X Elite chips, and laptop drivers are often missing. You'll need to find experimental ISO builds from developers. Some features like GPU acceleration still have issues on Linux. https://discourse.ubuntu.com/t/ubuntu-24...lite/48800

Someone named @RandomLegoBrick expressed that while they appreciate devices with Snapdragon or ARM chips for longer battery life, current software compatibility is lacking. They’re planning to wait 5 to 10 years before considering an ARM-based laptop.

I managed to install a version of Ubuntu on the laptop, though some features still didn’t work as expected. During the Windows installation, the installer reported missing drivers. I attempted to fix this by manually pulling drivers, using the Asus driver pack, and trying their bootable USB drive (WinRe Thingo), but it wasn’t listed as a boot option. Any advice on resolving these problems would be really helpful.
