I've recently read some news which say that the Linux kernel (non-free kernel) version 3.14 will have support for the kexec() call which subverts the UEFI Secure Boot.

The news article is in Brazilian Portuguese, it's under a free license, and can be found here: http://br-linux.org/2014/01/linux-314-vai-ter-suporte-a-chamada-kexec-que-subverte-o-uefi-secure-boot.html

For those who want to know something more without having to translate the article: The kexec() call is able to load an unsigned operating system, thus bypassing UEFI Secure Boot.

I'm just wondering if there is some way to use kexec() in favor of GNU+Linux Trisquel, GNU+Linux-libre, and many other free operating systems.

What do you all think?

Best regards, ADFENO.
Have a nice day.
