@stefano Are you sure about that?

I run a VM in with and so far I haven't had any issues.

And both the NetBSD and the FreeBSD wiki mention that it works:

Vulnerabilidad inducida por la UEFI

La UEFI hace que los ordenadores sean vulnerables a amenazas sofisticadas persistentes que es casi imposible detectar una vez instaladas.

@linmob @PINE64 Now let's see if we can flash this to existing installations from , it'd be awesome to get a consistent booting experience no matter the device used. And of course proper support, booting the phone with 😄

Luckily the awesome samueld from has made a project called -Boot: github.com/Tow-Boot/Tow-Boot

It does exactly this: provide "platform firmware" for devices that implements allowing you to boot generic UEFI ARM image. Myself and @martijnbraam are going to make postmarketOS support this kind of booting and I hope we can make this mandatory for every device that uses u-boot to boot. And I need _you_ to tell other distros to support this method of booting as well!

Modules like are really important to achieve the goal we've set at : device support for 10 years and more. Once a device is fully mainlined and can boot using a generic image we no longer have to put any effort in supporting this particular device. Everything will "just work". Just like no distro put any effort in making it boot with my particular desktop and laptop.

Flashing so-called "platform firmware" which implements , like u-boot, to this would allow the user to boot generic UEFI images not made specifically for the device in question. Finally you'd be able to properly live-boot a distribution through e.g. sdcards, USB sticks, etc. And you no longer have to wonder if your distro supports your particular device, you just have to download their generic UEFI image!

Lesetipp: Gestohlenes Laptop als Hintertür

Einbruch ins Firmennetz trotz Bitlocker, UEFI Secureboot und VPN. Ein Hardware-Sniffer, die Sticky-Keys-Backdoor und Pre-Logon-Funktion machen es möglich.

Lesenswerter Beitrag der zeigt das nicht alles so sicher ist wie es vermeintlich scheint.
