Note, this is about not booting from signed and verified bootloaders, using the 3rd party Microsoft CA, which need to go through quite some hoops already to get verified, not some unverified and/or unsigned loader.

Debian, Fedora, ... use already trusted and signed bootchains, but they are excluded by choice without any benefit of security whatsoever.

IMO this smell again like classic Microsoft EEE...



Debian and Fedora work fine with Secure Boot though.


They don't work with Device Guard, but as I mentioned a comment above the previous, it can be disabled.
