        The reality is that a bootloader will seemingly always be needed to account for difficult BIOS’ and legacy setups (I’m looking at you, dual-booted Ubuntu 20.04).

      Naah I just disable secure boot altogether, then you don’t have to worry about all that TPM security theatre.

        You don’t need secure boot to use EFI. It’s better all around regardless of SB.

          Yeah, but Windows 11 needs it.

          Can be disabled though. Easiest way - use Rufus when burning the USB.

          Fun fact, you can also install Win11 in MBR mode, no UEFI needed whatsoever.
