From 00cac7456125a2ab76ea30d32d78f4a2b177b2b3 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Ilias Apalodimas Date: Fri, 14 Jun 2024 15:14:03 +0300 Subject: [PATCH] doc: describe UEFI measured boot We currently only describe the process to enable measured boot using bootm. Describe the UEFI requirements as well which predate bootm.
