Welcome
Why don’t you try virtual box and/or usb bfr and then try for dual booting?

I suggest to try Linux Mint as first touch with Linux.

Hi Rocky, and welcome! I agree with @CptCharis... VirtualBox is a great way to get started because you can install it in both your Mac and your Asus and use it to test various Linux distributions (distros). Linux Mint is also a great first choice to test, but please check out some others too... that is the only way for you to find which one YOU like the best. (We only know what we like the best.) After testing some different ones out, and when you get ready to actually install to one computer or the other, I think the Asus is the better one to use for Linux.

Cheers

At the beginning, it is recommended that you first install linux with VMware or VirtualBox. After a while, decide whether you want to install Asus to Linux.
