These things are never YES or NO answers. But lets go with YES 😃

I have a personal disdain for HP machines, the only thing I can see us having trouble with worse case scenario is the wifi. But we might get lucky.

If the wifi is not supported by linux, worse case scenario you will have to plug in an ethernet cable, or share wifi over bluetooth/USB tether from a spare tablet of phone.

assuming this is all for educational purposes that shouldnt be too bad.. again im talking about worst case scenario here.

Dont worry too much about the formatting, most linux distros take care of that for you during installation.

if you are ok with all this, then I recommend you start with something like EndeavourOS, this will skip the overwhelming installation of Arch Linux and give you a GUI out of the box without any other unncessary packages. A the same time it wont make things too easy for you so you will still get experience with command line stuff.

Im assuming you want this to be a learning experience and best practice stuff right?
