    All I know about secure boot is that if I make a custom ISO and try booting from it, I would need to create a signature first, register it in my UEFI, and use it to sign the ISO.

    Seems like a pain in the ass, but then again if I want to play with a custom ISO I can do so in a VM, and that seems kind of worth it to prevent someone from booting whateverthefuck if they somehow gain physical access to my computer…

      I mean, if they gain physical access to your computer, they can just boot their favorite Linux live ISO and go to town. :3

        That’s true too, I guess. I suppose the only way to prevent that would be to disable USB boot, which would also make recovery impossible?
