Tails (Debian derivative runs from USB)
or
Kali (Debian Derivative)

All because I would like to try but such a unit is not available here...

Big Cheers and a heartfelt thanks for trying
I tried soldxk, total dud and was not recognized by the UEFI.

I tried tails and managed to get this far. I can't get past this screen though. I will keep trying.

If you do find a distro that works I will pay you another 3 LTC,
aside from your becoming a hero in the annals of TMO.

as planned, the funds have been sent:

Do try one or all of these:
Fedora
openSUSE
Mageia

Because the distributions you mentioned so far are all based on Debian.

I am going to do a review of the HP Pro Tablet 608 G1 itself, given that there are so few YouTube reviews of it.
