[Bug 2083770] Re: EFI cannot boot FIPS kernel

[Steve Langasek]

The bootloader selection is part of the input for ubuntu-image.  If you
are going to install a fips kernel, you will need to specify a
compatible bootloader.

Title:
  EFI cannot boot FIPS kernel

Status in Ubuntu Image:
  Invalid

Bug description:
  During the manual customization phase I attach the machine to a pro
  subscription and enable/install the FIPS kernel. Once the image is
  built, I have 2 kernels available in the boot list, the original
  kernel and the FIPS kernel. When I use a VMWare U8.x VM with EFI,
  booting the FIPS kernel fails but the original boots. When I switch to
  BIOS (VMWare U7.2), it boots the FIPS kernel without issue.

  The error is a digest validation failure which appears to be related
  to the EFI shim.
