I got my brand new XPS 13 (9370) yesterday. I'm interested to do test Leap 15 if I get neccessay guidance here, because I want to run Leap on it beside Ubuntu (and Windows10 for special cases) on what to do. But I don't want to change the pre-installed Ubuntu 16.04 LTS to not break the Dell support....
Does Dell actually offer any particular support?
You need to carve out some space for Leap15 - this depends on the current partitioning of your new machine, maybe resizing a filesystem. Then you install Leap15 and add it to the bootloader.
When installing Leap 15 its bootloader will detect other OSs installed on the HD and will include them in the grub2 menu (in this case Ubuntu and Win10).
I don't have any multi-boot machines myself, but there is plenty of howtos and documentation on it.
The hardware is obviously 100% supported by Ubuntu LTS, so you should have no issues with Leap15.
One year Dell Pro-support is included, i.e SR, BIOS and Ubuntu OS Updates/iso and Recovery iso: http://www.dell.com/support/home/us/en/19/drivers/driversdetails?driverid=c5...

The Dell XPS 13 9370 laptop with the components described has been awarded the status of certified pre-install for Ubuntu. https://certification.ubuntu.com/hardware/201708-25696/
I have "mostly" used dual-or-triple boot setups on my other laptop and workstations, currently Leap 42.3/Leap15.0Beta and Windows.
Regarding the new XPS 13, I am able to look closer at it after help from Dell support to enable Legacy boot for USB3 Leap via Thunderbolt/USB-C port and DA-300 adapter.
How did you manage? Thx. Regards, Frank -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-factory+unsubscribe@opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse-factory+owner@opensuse.org
