[Bug 1788727] Re: upgrade crashing due to unsigned kernels

The workaround that I have is removing all UKUU added/mainline kernels,
finish configuring the grub packages, reinstall the latest mainline
kernel and be on my marry way.

If it installed unsigned versions alongside the signed ones, then the
UKUU kernels removed should have no effect on that. Also, if you can't
boot with unsigned kernels no matter what when Secure Boot is on, then
how come I don't have to turn it off after reinstalling the mainline
kernels and the system boots just fine (and yes, I checked)?

It gives me the impression that Secure Boot only looks at GRUB and
doesn't really see the kernels.
