If you didn't read the instruction above here is what the scripts does:
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
* `grub2-sign` is signing the bootloader files with root's keypair.
|
||||||
|
* `grub2-unsign` is removing the signatures of the bootloader files.
|
||||||
|
* `grub2-verify` is checking if your signatures are good. If not, you will see which signature is bad.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
## Troubleshooting
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
### I forgot to run grub2-unsign before I made changes. What now?
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
Run `grub2-verify` to see, which signature is bad. Remove the signature and run `grub2-unsign`, after this `grub2-sign`.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
### How can I switch off GRUB2's check_signature feature?
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
Open */etc/grub.d/00_header* and remove the part
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
cat << EOF
|
||||||
|
set check_signatures=enforce
|
||||||
|
EOF
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
Run `grub2-unsign` and `grub2-mkconfig -o /boot/grub/grub.cfg`.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
### Suddenly I can't boot! This is YOUR FAULT!
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
No. An important signature is bad. So GRUB2 didn't run this part of code/configuration/kernel/whatever.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
### Okay, I really got some bad signatures. What do I do now?
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
Check your system thoroughly. Check it about malicious software. Check it about malicious connections. CHECK EVERYTHING.
