I've turned off Secure Boot a little while ago because enrolling keys is annoying at best, so it shouldn't matter much, but the AMD improvements that are bundled in here make it important.

I suppose I'll see if I can get Fedora to boot through Secure Boot after all this.

I'm not familiar with the issue in this update, is secure boot enforced now?

[–] [email protected] 2 points 2 months ago (1 children)

It’s not enforced, but I kept it on and was using Fedora until I turned it off recently since they support it. If I turn it back on, good chance Secure Boot will complain when booting into Linux.

I think this is the issue here

Debian supports secure boot OOTB.

Update your Linux distros, boot to another drive, give up windows... The choice is yours

Just turning off secure boot and giving Linux its own drive. Much better this way!

Killed my Windows VM too.

Good thing it's well constrained there.

Windows killed Windows? Oh the irony!

Well, it's one of Windows favorite hobbies...

I just repaired a windows 10 laptop of an acquaintance that wouldn't boot. Turns out the windows boot manager partition was nowhere to be seen in the boot list of the BIOS. Who knows what really happened but I arrived to the conclusion that the windows update fucked his laptop.
