have you enrolled the secure boot key?
most importantly, have you read and followed the documentation?
Secure Boot Instructions - Bazzite Documentation
Bazzite is a custom image built upon Fedora Atomic Desktops that brings the best of Linux gaming to all of your devices.
no i didn't followed yet the documentation and I have not enrolled the secure boot key, I just disabled for the moment. at the blue screen I just choose "continue boot"
well, you will have to follow method B of the instructions then!
it is pretty much straightforward, but if you have any concern or issue, don't be afraid to tell it
how much bazzite is less safe with secureboot disabled? thx
I don't really know about this, but I believe it's a good thing to enable it
according to a quick online search, disabling secure boot allows unsigned and/or potentially malicious software to run during the boot process
especially when it's very easy and quick to set up, I suggest you enable it

ok
I'm always the same person, I am writing from win11. I followed the steps in the link enabled secureboot and bazzite won't boot anymore
What do I do now I reinstall it with secureboot enabled in the bios?
Disable secure boot, follow the documentation to our enroll our key, and then enable it
You do not need to reinstall under any circumstance
I managed just right now to make it work. I enrolled new key using a pen drive installer usb
F9 to select the source in bios and then I select usb drive and before going to install menu it asked me to enroll new key, I put universalblue password and then I tried to boot from my harddisk. it worked
bazzite@bazzite:~$ sudo mokutil --sb-state
[sudo] password di bazzite:
SecureBoot enabled
SecureBoot enabled
