> Can you actually verify that this is the case with the _Ubuntu_ shim +
_Ubuntu_ GRUB build? As I said, it's not our job to support downstream
builds. The shim+GRUB+Windows all have to be 64-bit for this to work of
course.

I will use the ubuntu-24.04-desktop-amd64.iso system image to attempt
loading Windows 10's /efi/Microsoft/Boot/bootmgfw.efi. I'll get back to
you with the results later.

I can confirm that shim, grub, and Windows are all 64-bit.
