My understanding is secure boot is kinda worthless so it's not that important to sort out. It let's the bios trust the OS but that is a fairly limited attack vector. I don't know enough about it though, so feel free to enroll the MOK keys bc it's not that hard tbh, just annoying

Ok thank you! I'd do it but I don't fully understand the implications. Can I for instance re-generate a MOK key from whatever distro I install next and use that?

I believe so. You just enroll the new keys and then you're good

oh alright. I'll try it. I must have missed a step in the tutorial the first time, or mistyped something... Cheers,
