UEFI boot from flash drive works out of the box.
For install I needed to change the drive settings in the BIOS from the
default of RAID (what ever that means on a laptop) to AHCI. No need to
turn off secure boot.
If you want to use a DisplayLink USB display adaptor like the D3100

I would go with Fedora or OpenSUSE latest if you want RH like on that
hardware. There is nothing that unstable about them other than losing
updates and maintenance after 2 years and having to upgrade.
Another choice is to run Virtualbox on the Windows that shipped with the
