Since this is a laptop I want to make it unusable in case it gets stolen for example.
Is it possible to patch out everything else and just leave the chainloader? > You should be able to pass > parameters to kernel this way, including initrd path, but at least > initrd will probably need to be located on firmware accessible > directory i.e. ESP. Yes the kernel and the initrd will need to be on the EFI partition. >> Anyway I'll check if gummiboot provides enough functionality for my case. >> > Does not gummiboot rely on shim as well? It looks like gummiboot is just a chainloader so, since I've installed my own keys, no need of Shim. Best regards, Plamen p.s.
