Bazzite Installation Error - ROG ALLY
I recently had to reinstall Bazzite but for some reason, it refuses to install. At first it was giving me an error that read “error: device is active” or something along those lines, but i managed to get past that error but now I’ve run into a different error. The OS is installed. The partitions and os files are on my drive, however the os refuses to boot. It brings me to the grub menu where it gives me 3 options, 2 of which are identical:
*Fedora Linux 40.20240605.0 (Bazzite) (ostree:0)
Fedora Linux 40.20240605.0 (Bazzite) (ostree:0)
UEFI Firmware Settings
Selecting the top 2 brings me to another grub menu displaying 2 more error messages:
Error: ../../grub-core/kern/efi/sb.c:182:bad shim signature
Error: ../../grub-core/loader/i386/efi/linux.c:258:you need to load the kernel first.
I assume this is some sort of EFI partition issue. Is there a way for me to fix this?
Edit: I have no idea how Linux works or what I’m doing

You are having a secure boot issue, turn secure boot off in your BIOS and then once you've booted into Bazzite run the ujust command to enroll the key
Once the key is enrolled you can turn secure boot back on
Oh shoot, thought i had disabled that. I was tearing my hair out this whole time. Thank you very much for your help.
