This is not true. Fedora installs perfectly fine on Secure
Boot-enabled systems without any change to the enrolled keys. Our shim
package is signed by a key that has been required to be trusted for
virtually all x86 PCs for the past several years.

The *only* case where Secure Boot must be disabled for the proper
functioning of a PC today is if you use the NVIDIA proprietary
drivers, because nobody is helping RPM Fusion set up a mechanism to
sign their driver and load the key into the kernel for trust.
