Thank you Don for setting the record straight re shim! I too installed my own secure boot keys following this tutorial: https://wiki.gentoo.org/wiki/Sakaki's_EFI_Install_Guide/Configuring_Secure_Boot . And upon the grub upgrade from 2.04-1ubuntu26 to 2.04-1ubuntu26.2, my machine failed to boot as well with the same invalid signature message. The complete message read:
Loading Linux 5.4.0-42-generic ... error: /boot/vmlinuz-5.4.0-42-generic has invalid signature. Loading initial ramdisk ... error: you need to load the kernel first. I do not have shim installed, precisely because I did not want to use the Microsoft keys. My setup (full disk encryption and secure boot) worked since May 2019. I could have done without the adrenaline buzz when it suddenly stopped working. Downgrading all installed grub packages to 2.04-1ubuntu26 made the system work again. Thank you Kyle for documenting that! -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1890672 Title: secure boot fails after upgrade to grub2-common 2.04-1ubuntu26.2 To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/grub2/+bug/1890672/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
