Secure boot sucks permalink fedilink source parent hideshow 4 child comments replies: [–] LodeMike@lemmy.today 1 point 5 hours ago (3 children) Hmm. There might be a way to manually flash the storage/memory but it'd be hard. permalink fedilink source parent hideshow 3 child comments replies: [–] muusemuuse@sh.itjust.works 4 points 5 hours ago (2 children) Storage was removed. Still wouldn’t reach firmware.
