“We present a set of recommendations that will allow users the freedom to choose their software, while retaining the security features of UEFI Secure Boot, and complying with open source licenses used in distributions of Linux.”
Update:
Linux基金会同样也于今日发表了一份UEFI Secure Boot白皮书:Making UEFI Secure Boot Work With Open Platforms,由James Bottomley and Jonathan Corbet撰稿。
“Linux and other open operating systems will be able to take advantage of secure boot if it is implemented properly in the hardware. This document is intended to describe how the UEFI secure boot specification can be implemented to interoperate well with open systems and to avoid adversely affecting the rights of the owners of those systems while providing compliance with proprietary software vendors’ requirements.”
两份白皮书都定义了UEFI Secure Boot 规范应如何定义,以让PC正常运行自由操作系统。
