You only need disable it until you've got that OS installed, and then you can re-enable it. All the major linux distros have supported Secure Boot for years (which I was not aware of, and will now look into setting up!)


You don’t need to disable it at all for distributions that support secure boot.


I don't understand the tech: could it be the case that an older machine is missing CA roots that causes it to reject legitimately-signed code?

I had to disable SB to boot the installer for either F39 or Mint 22, i forget which, on an old laptop.
