[Solved] Security Boot Fail

Post#1 by Jack » 10 Sep 2018, 22:23

I just try to bootup Porteus-XFCE-v4.0-dev-x86_64.iso and I booting EFI and I see a Pad Lock and under it Security Boot Fail. I have a Acer with Windows 8.1 and I was using USB 3.0 thumb drive with 2 partitions a Fat 32 with boot files and EXT4 Porteus. Is this going to be a easy fixed? If yes what do I need to do?

I just like Slackware because I think it teach you about Linux to build packages where Ubuntu is like Windows you just install programs you want.

Jack!! You're BACK!! :Yahoo!:

On EFI systems to boot a USB drive you need to disable the machine's Secure Boot option.


Welcome back Jack. :)

There's a kind of workaround that I use without disabling secureboot.
First flash ubuntu (or fedora) on the thumb drive. Just the live usb. Ubuntu does not need secure boot to be disabled. Now nuke all traces of ubuntu from the usb except the EFI and boot. Now copy porteus folders on the USB and edit grub.cfg to boot porteus.

:%) So the USB's EFI & boot folders end up containing both Ubuntu and Porteus files?

No, the EFI and boot folders are only that of ubuntu. I put the porteus kernel and initrd in this boot folder. And copy the porteus folder onto the USB.
Then I add an entry (or multiple entries) in the boot/grub/grub.cfg for booting porteus, something like:

Code: Select all

menuentry "Porteus" {
	set gfxpayload=keep
	linux	/boot/vmlinuz
	initrd	/boot/initrd.xz
}
Other boot possibilities (eg: isoboot) is also possible using the from= cheatcode.

I broke a round bone in my back but not sure what it called.

I will try what everyone told me what to do and see if I can do it.

Unclear to me. Are you referring to the /EFI/boot/ folder? Can you post an ls of the boot folder?
Then I add an entry (or multiple entries) in the boot/grub/grub.cfg for booting porteus, something like:

Code: Select all

menuentry "Porteus" {
	set gfxpayload=keep
	linux	/boot/vmlinuz
	initrd	/boot/initrd.xz
}
On my EFI system with Grub2Win I found this works for booting my Porteus USB drive. ;)

Code: Select all

menuentry " Porteus 4.0 USB - EFI" --class slackware   --class icon-porteus  {

     set efibootmgr=/EFI/boot/bootx64.efi

     set bootdrv=$root
     search -f $efibootmgr --set=root
     if [ $root != $bootdrv ]; then
        chainloader $efibootmgr
     else
        echo "----------------------------------------"
        echo USB drive NOT found.
        echo
        sleep -v -i 10
     fi
     set root=$bootdrv 
     }

My USB drive certainly doesn't look like yours Jack.

It has very few files in it's root folder. Did you read the USB_INSTALLATION.txt file?

BTW What command did you use to produce your directory listing? I use to know it but have forgotten.

guest@porteus:~$ 
The vmlinuz and initrd.xz in the /boot directory are of porteus

On my EFI system with Grub2Win I found this works for booting my Porteus USB drive.
Good, so narrowing it down, basically, here are the steps:
- Keep secure boot on
- Burn an ubuntu on a USB drive
- Run from USB and see that ubuntu runs with secure boot on
- Add an entry in the grub loader of ubuntu to boot porteus. You know how to do this already with grub2win.

Security Boot Fail

Post#11 by Ed_P » 11 Sep 2018, 16:33

That approach takes up a lot of space on the USB drive!

Plus all the /boot/grub/x86_64-efi files.

It would be nice to figure out how the Ubuntu system supports the Secure Boot option so Porteus can do it also.

But I think the Ubuntu approach is a little more complicated than Jack needs. I think he needs baby steps for his problem at this point. :)

You use 1 partition and I use 2 partition because I am using a 32gb USB and partition is the FAT 32 Boot and partition 2 is the rest and it is EXT 4 the working partition. I been using this for years but now the Acer can use the EFI and that what I want to do. I don't use save.dat file.
I just like Slackware because I think it teach you about Linux to build packages where Ubuntu is like Windows you just install programs you want.

You need to sign the grub bootloader. Ubuntu does it with Canonical's signature, fedora with red hat's

That's fine Jack, you can use 2 partitions with EFI. And the install of Porteus 4.0 on a USB drive will boot on a EFI system if the Secure Boot option is disabled. What you have on your 1st partition is not a normal install of Porteus and needs to be fixed to boot. A normal Porteus 4.0 install creates the 1st partition for EFI support.

True. I misread.

So basically you don't boot to Ubuntu you boot to grub. Interesting.
