Introduction to Linux - A Hands on Guide
This guide was created as an overview of the Linux Operating System, geared toward new users as an exploration tour and getting started guide, with exercises at the end of each chapter.
For more advanced trainees it can be a desktop reference, and a collection of the base knowledge needed to proceed with system and network administration. This book contains many real life examples derived from the author's experience as a Linux system and network administrator, trainer and consultant. They hope these examples will help you to get a better understanding of the Linux system and that you feel encouraged to try out things on your own.

Ok so firstly my operating system was windows 10 and i wanted to install the Kali linux x64 in my usb flash drive and i did it, afterwards i made my pc from my bios to boot through my USB(i made it as primary in the bios) but now i can't seem to get in the BIOS it says press F2 and it directs me straight to the kali linux interface start as x64, install and all the options but i cant seem to get in the BIOS to make my hard dirve primary again. I dont know what to do
Strange. You might try holding down f2 immediately after pressing the power on button. If that doesn't work, try removing the hard drive so it has nothing to boot to and that should hopefully force it to load BIOS
Ummm, the make/model is in the thread's title. Or was that edited in by the OP later?
It was there in the original post. He must have just missed it. Also I read through that post, which I saw immediately after a post of my own wherein I apparently suggest the same fix lol. In any case, this fix would be system agnostic.
Imagine i have to open thee whole f lap top just for a hdd, like rlly acer you had to put in in with 2000 screws
Maybe not. Please read the link that BW-userx suggested for you. There are a couple different options that may work which are much easier than cracking open your case. (Read through to the last page.)
