Re: [H-source-users] R: h-node and UEFI Secure Boot, how should we move?

Hi, this is lammi87.

I added the following message to the issue 138 
(http://www.h-node.org/issues/view/en/138/1/224df039f7295fb53ca2a016e899ebe5). 
This gives the users more details and should be easy to implement.  What do you 
think?

=============

So, how about this:

> does it have free boot firmware?                yes
>                                                                         no

> not-specified

with a link to explanations on help/wiki about what we mean by boot firmware 
(BIOS, Coreboot, UEFI, etc) and what is considered as free boot firmware 
(coreboot only?).

>                                                                                 
> no

> not-specified

If user selects "no" it means that either there is restricted boot implemented 
on the device or that installation is not physically possible (can there be such a case?).

> does it have restricted boot?                           yes, can be disabled

> yes, cannot be disabled
>                                                                              no
>

with a link to explanations on help/wiki about what restricted boot is, how 
UEFI can implement restricted boot but doesn't always do so and how to check if 
there is restricted boot and if it can be disabled.
