Hello guys, I have been going over the arch wiki to setup Secure Boot on my system and I can’t get it to work. I alredy killed the windows install twice trying to get it to work. Is there any other resource I can use to try to set it up?
Please do not suggest me to disable it as for my company it is not an option.
Thank you
I saw one in another forum recently:
That’s a very specific setup though. The guidance in the ArchWiki covers a broader range of configuration scenarios.
This is not specific enough for anyone to be able to figure out what is happening. What are the exact steps you have taken? How specifically is it not working?
I know it’s helpful fixing it here, but I believe Ubuntu, Mint and Fedora all work out of the box with secure boot.
Most Arch folks don’t care or bother trying. I’ve only seen it a handful of times over all the years.

Easiest way is to do it assisted with sbctl, just check for the section “Assisted_process_with_sbctl” on the Archwiki page you already shared here.

I use Fedora with a custom kernel so I had to setup secure-boot manually but it’s quite easy with “sbctl”, however I’ve never done it on Arch when I was still using that as my daily driver.
Since its really is not SECURE
This doesn’t help because OP said.
Not really useful to start another discussion about for vs against it since there have been enough of those.
I wasn’t suggesting it I was just stating another reason why most Arch users don’t bother.

Yes. It’s a Microsoft ploy.
Most of what you’re told us true until you learn about it for yourself.
Unfortunately IT departments fall into this camp too.
