Support for MX and antiX Linux distros
http://www.forum.mxlinux.org/
Maybe I missed something, or misunderstood something. As far as I remember MX cannot boot with secure boot enabled at this time.
Thank you for the explanation. Funnily enough, I did read your post here earlier:fehlix wrote: Sun Sep 26, 2021 1:22 pm The default kernel installed are signed. What needs to be done after MX-Installer did run and after purged any dkms-related stuff, would be to install and add signed grub-modules and shim related stuff. Further to not have grub-install and generate efi-grub loader but get the Debian signed efi-loader onto the ESP.
The little hickup, would be that debian signed EFI-grub loader do have a hardcoded prefix for the EFI folder, which is on the ESP something like /EFI/debian. (That' something similar to Mint which use Ubuntu's hardcoded prefix at /EFI/ubuntu)
I might need find my notes how I have installed MX21 to boot in secure mode ... in case anyone might be interested....
That's a fair point as far as MX-19 is concerned although there are a couple of threads on this forum with instructions on how to enable MX-19 for secure boot, but I guess my question for this thread is whether this has been/will be addressed in MX-21? From my recent research it seems that Ubuntu, Mint, Debian and Redhat among others now provide this functionality "out of the box" so to speak and I guess all distros will eventually.Eadwine Rose wrote: Sun Sep 26, 2021 1:37 pmMaybe I missed something, or misunderstood something.

Ah, found the comment in question, here: viewtopic.php?p=653725#p653725
It will be possible with some additional steps to have MX21-booted with secure boot enabled.Mirador wrote: Sun Sep 26, 2021 1:51 pmThat's a fair point as far as MX-19 is concerned although there are a couple of threads on this forum with instructions on how to enable MX-19 for secure boot, but I guess my question for this thread is whether this has been/will be addressed in MX-21?
