That is the easiest way for the initrd to be rebuilt .. which is what
created the unbootable issue in the first place.  At least is some
circumstances.

You can also regenerate your initrd manually after installing the shim.

This is  IF  you are already in a failed boot condition from the bad
install on Friday.

If you are doing the upgrade/install now from a bootable system, all you
need to do is a normal update.
