Secure boot issue

Hello, I am trying to install arch on my Lenovo T550 Thinkpad alongside an installation of Windows 10. However I have encountered an issue getting Secure boot to work. After power on I receive: Image failed to verify with *ACCESS DENIED*. Then the systemd-boot menu loads and I receive the access denied error again before arch loads. I have tried following the following resources with no avail:

https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/Sy … figuration
https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/Un … led_system
https://bbs.archlinux.org/viewtopic.php … 2#p1514912
http://www.rodsbooks.com/efi-bootloader … eboot.html

And here are some relevant information

Re: Secure boot issue

I believe it might be of help to post the output of lsblk -f as well.

I think you may have to blame this on a crappy UEFI implementation.

Re: Secure boot issue

Thanks for the help. I'm probably going to resort to disabling secure boot.
