i think if your network card has "UEFI secure boot" you have done something wrong. probably a lot of things

i counted at least 6 different pieces of firmware when looking at it component by component (if you can call a 128 GB eMMC with Ubuntu on it "firmware")

@whitequark How fun: that's my next engagement at ${DAYJOB}. Gonna do a code review of the UEFI module for a NIC with an eye towards Secure Boot.

@lattera no no, i'm not talking about an UEFI module that the NIC injects into the host for PXE reasons. that would be too reasonable.

the NIC itself has UEFI. and a copy of Ubuntu.

@whitequark oOoOo, I didn't catch that nuance. Thanks for the clarification. :-)
