Thank you, Wen - these observations are helpful and valuable. In my case, the machine came with Secure Boot enabled. I understand that there is malware which targets the boot process, but it's also true that Secure Boot complicates life for Linux users and distributors considerably. Thus, it's both a useful security measure and a source of problems.
If the PC architecture declines, it may become even harder to install Linux on readily available hardware. Linux is going to need support from system manufacturers - including those who specialize in Linux itself. _______________________________________________ luv-main mailing list [email protected] https://lists.luv.asn.au/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/luv-main
