Description Alberto Planas Dominguez 2013-11-12 13:15:49 UTC
This text is a proposal for inclusion in the release notes, and is related with: BNC#848797


System not booting in SecureBoot machine
----------------------------------------

The new version of the shim loader in 13.1 allows more machines to boot with Secure Boot enabled than openSUSE 12.3 . Still, if you have problems to boot your machine with that configuration, you can try to upgrade the BIOS to the latest version. If it still does not boot, please, write in the wiki (http://en.opensuse.org/openSUSE:UEFI) the model of your machine to check for the next release.

Ok, thanks.  Last time, we had something similar in the RN.  I think we should say it in a positive way ;)

Here is my proposal:

   <title>Booting When in Secure Boot Mode</title>
   <para>
    This only affects machines in UEFI mode with secure boot enabled.
   </para>
   <para>
    The new version of the shim loader allows more machines to boot with
    Secure Boot enabled than with openSUSE 12.3.  Nevertheless, in case
    of trouble, first update the BIOS of your machine to the latest
    version. If the BIOS update does not help, report the model of your
    machine it the wiki (http://en.opensuse.org/openSUSE:UEFI). Then we
    can track it for the next release.
