I would like to know what Mageia plans to do about secure boot - when
you will have a release that supports booting on hardware on which this
feature is enabled.
I'm wondering as well. I've been thinking to upgrade my system somewhere
this year. This means secure boot, UEFI, etc. It would be nice if Mageia
supports that nicely.
Supporting (U)EFI does not require SecureBoot support...
we wont support SecureBoot for Mga3, and there is no rush considering
a lot of changes is still happening on several fronts...
I will try to see if I can fix the UEFI part for ~beta3, but no promises
yet....
And for people thinking of Windows 8 dual boot... Win8 does not
_require_ SecureBoot either... (only the overprized RT does)
And personally, I dont think we should ever bother with the SecureBoot
crap as its flawed in so many ways...
