Yes and secure boot is different for different usecases. I can see
secure boot being geniunely useful for an atm on end not that I think
there are implementations that use ubuntu that I know about. But if

You and I are advanced users and using secure boot at least is
uncomfortable for us, we don't know, if it could cause an issue at a
bad
timing. It might expand security, but for my computer usage I didn't
experience security issues in more than 10 year

If you don't generate your own key and set its path in
"CONFIG_MODULE_SIG_KEY", "make" will generate a
"certs/signing_key.pem" key (unless you disable key gen

Just a dumb question, since I have not been happy
with UEFI let alone secure boot with keys.
If you roll your own kernels, do the build scripts
let you generate your own keys?

Yes, it would be more user-friendly to disable secure boot instead of
asking a user to go through the process of importing a new key after
every kernel or driver upgrade. Therefore, I will modify my proposal a
bit and suggest that the menu to disable secure boot should have a new
option to add

Secure boot is modern, but it is useful for Linux and BSD
I found a few typos that need to be corrected to avoid confusion:
1) /etc/kernel/postint.d should be /etc/kernel/postinst.d
2) The suggested command for the script in the above directory should
be /usr/src/linux-headers-$(uname
-r)/scripts/sign-file sha256 /path/to/keys/VBOX.priv /path/to/keys/VB
18 matches
