#asknostr #Linux

I'm gonna be buying a couple of used Lenovo Thinkpads for a family member, and then wipe Windows off of them, then install Linux. I've done this for myself before with no issues, but since this will be for someone else, I have a question: Is there anything else i need to check or change on the laptops, in regard to possible malicious tampering on the laptops? Or is wiping Windows enough?

I mean… bios tampering is possible but pretty unlikely. And if you’re installing Linux, wiping the hard drive is usually enough.
