My pre-order from February just arrived, so I’ve been poking at it a bit this weekend. I tried putting Linux Mint on it first. It booted but had issues (e.g. ethernet wasn’t detected – although WiFi worked fine); seems like the 6.8 kernel is too old. I’ve got Fedora on it instead now, and that seems to be working better so far.
cachyos has kernels specifically for these AMD chips, if Fedora gives you problems or if you wanna try an Arch distro, I’ve been enjoying cachyos on my ryzen 395 laptop

Fedora is the new Ubuntu.
