2013-07-19 16:02:41 Stéphane Graber description I've struggled to install Linux on a Packard Bell EasyNote LV11HC, without having to accept the Windows 8 license, and my progress is documented in http://www.linlap.com/packard_bell_easynote_lv . Had to pull the hard drive and install to a USB stick to be able to get into the firmware menu and enable the F12 boot menu. After finally being able to install Ubuntu 13.04 on the hard drive, the UEFI firmware refused to boot the hard drive, claiming it was against the security policy. I was able to boot Ubuntu by powering on again and using F12 to pick the hard drive. No idea what is wrong, but can help with debugging the next few days before I switch to legacy BIOS and put it into production. ProblemType: Bug DistroRelease: Ubuntu 13.04 Package: shim 0~20120906.bcd0a4e8-0ubuntu4 ProcVersionSignature: Ubuntu 3.8.0-22.33-generic 3.8.11 Uname: Linux 3.8.0-22-generic x86_64 ApportVersion: 2.9.2-0ubuntu8 Architecture: amd64 Date: Sun May 26 11:14:38 2013 Dependencies: InstallationDate: Installed on 2013-05-26 (0 days ago) InstallationMedia: Ubuntu 13.04 "Raring Ringtail" - Release amd64 (20130424) MarkForUpload: True SourcePackage: shim UpgradeStatus: No upgrade log present (probably fresh install) --- SRU --- == Rational == Some machines aren't detected as using SecureBoot at installation time, however require SecureBoot post-installation. The easiest way to deal with this is to install shim-signed, grub-efi-amd64-signed and linux-image-signed on every UEFI machine. == Test case == 1) Install the 64bit version of Ubuntu on a UEFI machine with SecureBoot disabled 2) Check that linux-image-signed-*, grub-efi-amd64-signed and shim-signed are installed post-install 3) Check that sudo efibootmgr -v reports the Ubuntu entry as booting shimx64.efi == Regression potential == This will significantly widen the range of machines that will boot through the shim so it's not impossible that a shim bug could prevent some of them from booting. However I don't think this is a huge issue as the livecd itself already boots through shim, so if they managed to install Ubuntu in the first place, it should still work once that change lands. --- original bug report --- I've struggled to install Linux on a Packard Bell EasyNote LV11HC, without having to accept the Windows 8 license, and my progress is documented in http://www.linlap.com/packard_bell_easynote_lv .
