G'day mack, Welcome to Linux.org

the usual approach with Linux is to "attach" the .iso file which would normally come from linuxmint.com, or from our download page.....to a usb stick.....which makes that usb stick bootable

Then the pc/laptop is booted to that usb stick

Once it has booted, the user (you) will normally play around with the linux version on there, making sure that sound and internet etc are working ok.

Then the user will double click on "Install Linux Mint" icon, which is found on the desktop ......this starts the FULL install to the drive (hdd/ssd) on the laptop/pc

This may help understand: https://linuxmint-installation-guide.readthedocs.io/en/latest/

Now tell us what questions you have, and also tell us the specs of your laptop/pc

Um.....okay! Don't take this the wrong way, but WHICH "linux OS"? We do need a wee bit more detail than that (if we're to be able to help in any meaningful way).....because there are literally hundreds of them, and they're all somewhat different to each other.

The one thing you can definitely say that they all have in common is the Linux kernel.

I too had got this message but BOOTMGR is typically associated with Windows, not Linux.

Doesn't make sense what you are saying because that error is a Windows problem as was already stated by someone else in this topic.
