Fedora, secure boot, and an insecure futureFedora, secure boot, and an insecure futurePosted Jun 6, 2012 19:03 UTC (Wed) by daniels (subscriber, #16193)In reply to: Fedora, secure boot, and an insecure future by russell Parent article: Fedora, secure boot, and an insecure future
Yes, in that case things are a serious pain to get working. I assume they'd quite widely ship a live USB image (perhaps even a Windows executable) to update the bootloader.
The option you always have is disabling secure boot, which means that in its very very worst case it's no better than not doing anything at all. In its best (and presumably overwhelmingly dominant) case then it's infinitely better.
I'm struggling to see the downside.

Except on ARM where you don't get the option of disabling it.

Yep, Fedora is not playing that game, they aren't going to to ship for Win8 logo ARM machines for this very reason.
