Secure Boot, which makes installing free systems difficult, is certainly better 
than Restricted Boot, which makes it impossible, but both seem bad for software 
freedom.

If this is the recommended method for installing Trisquel on a computer with 
Secure Boot, then this page[1] or a subpage should explain how to manage the 
trust keys. I figure it out I'll add a subpage to the documentation, but if 
anyone already has knowledge of how to manage UEFI keys I'd appreciate 
guidance. I think this page[2] might contain the information I need, but it's a 
little over my head and will take me a while to work through.
