is it possible to run an OS other than Windows RT on a
Microsoft Surface RT?

I know there are version(s) of Linux that run on machines
with an ARM processor.

They claim here, you'd run into a slight bootloader problem.

Thanks. I'll stick with Windows RT 8.1.
The people on that forum don't seem to understand the ARM processor
is not X86 compatible.

(sheepish look) Yes. It was cheap and I thought it might be fun.

You mis-spelled atheism when crafting your
original two-group newsgroup specification,
which would cause no copy of the post to
end up in alt.atheism.

My PC shows you wrote it on 11/15/2021. That's Nov 15,2021 for the
feeble minded.

I'm most surprised to see that Lucifer (= Satan = the source of all
evil) isn't an American.

I'd always imagined he must be surely be an American, perhaps from one
of the Southern states.
