Secure boot and locked bios with no password
This laptop I got has a locked BIOS so after bazzite install, how do I proceed with the Perform MOK management screen? I don't want to brick the computer and unable to boot because I have no way to get into the BIOS as it is locked and i dont have this password. Do I "continue boot" "Enroll MOK" "Enroll key from disk" or "Enroll hash from disk"

Backup before bazzite install. Is it valid?
is it enough of a backup of my windows install to do
sudo dd if=/dev/nvme0n1 bs=1M conv=noerror,sync | gzip > thinkpad.img.gz before i try bazzite? i did it from a linux livecd.
and then i checked the extracted img with fdisk -l thinkpad.img and it says The backup GPT table is not on the end of the device.
but when i actually mount it read only i can see my files ok
sudo kpartx -a -v thinkpad.img
sudo mount /dev/mapper/loop1p3 /mnt/thinkpadssd -o ro
If things dont work out i intend to take this img.gz, extract it, and then from livecd do dd if=thinkpad.img of=/dev/nvme0n1 Will I still be able to do this with the error about the backup GPT table?9 replies
