[Bug 1465396] Re: Please provide a signed syslinux-efi for secure-boot enabled systems

[Mathieu Trudel-Lapierre]

We have already been working on the "Booting in insecure mode message",
a new version of shim is available in proposed for all currently
supported releases of Ubuntu, this should fix the technical issues with
using the currently available methods of booting in UEFI mode.

Title:
  Please provide a signed syslinux-efi for secure-boot enabled systems

Status in System76:
  New
Status in syslinux package in Ubuntu:
  New

Bug description:
  syslinux-efi is a great option for PXE booting a UEFI-mode client, but
  the current package is not signed and so cannot be used when secure-
  boot is enable.

  It would be very helpful if there was, say, a `syslinux-signed-efi`
  package similar to `linux-signed-generic`, etc.

  For what it's worth, System76 is working on switching all its products
  to UEFI, and this is one of the last blockers for our imaging system
  (we don't want customers to be confused/concerned about the "booting
  in insecure mode" message).
