Well, there's a lot that needs to happen there, with downsides.

One is that xnba loader is not going to be compatible with secureboot, so you'd 
have to implement an alternate boot loader, which *likely* involves more tftp.

There may be hope to write a plugin that uses grub and shim and httpboot to 
recover much of that.

Of course, iirc you aren't allowed any compiled drivers of your own accord, so 
GPFS and nVidia for example would not work out so well...

I have had some intent to implement secureboot compatible flow, but hadn't 
actually had a request yet.  How strong is this request.

Subject: [External] [xcat-user] diskless booting with secure boot

Does anyone have experience booting statless/diskless booting with secure boot? 
What needs to be done to the image?
