page 116 of Microsoft's The Certification Requirements, there is a clear
instructions for hardware vendors that under no circumstance should the
installation of another OS be permitted.
MANDATORY: Disabling Secure MUST NOT be possible on ARM systems.
That should not be a "real" issue. Only thing it disables is installation
of Linux on ARM systems are are "certified". There is nothing to stop
Nvidia/TI/Qualcomm et. el. to maintain a line of Linux compatible platform.
But, why to let Microsoft take control of the platform it is
non-existent? We need to cut the chains Micro$oft is trying to put
around ARM hardware.
