Been down the rabbit hole lately of UEFI Secure Boot issues, and decided to write an overview of how it works out-of-the-box in the excellent Debian-based Linux Mint LMDE 6.
Have mostly been researching this stuff as I was looking to replace GRUB entirely with systemd-boot on one of my systems. Will likely write a follow-up piece documenting that journey if I think it’d be interesting to some nerds out there.
Perhaps I missed it when skimming the article, but why were you looking to replace GRUB?
In case it was in the article, it might be worth adding that information up here.
Good question! There’s a few reasons, I guess:
All boils down to my enjoyment of doing weird nerdy things though, ultimately. =)
In the interest of politeness I reserved my initial reaction of absolute horror that this would even be attempted by systemd.
