You could boot a packaged Linux that doesn't need
installation but runs directly from the boot device. I haven't done this but I know
they are out there and easy to use.
I use Clonezilla for standalone Linux stuff (including backups) - they
have ready to run UEFI USB images and CD images. You can get to a
command prompt and enter "sudo bash" to get a root shell. Useful for
all sorts of stuff.
There are also Ubuntu "live" CD images out there, or at least were, a
few years back.
