Will these things interfere with Secure Boot?

I've been wanting to enable Secure Boot in order to upgrade to Windows 11 on my other partition (yes, I know you can bypass the restriction, I just want to make sure nothing goes wrong later down the line), but I'm unsure if either of two certain things that I use will cause issues, those being linux-tkg and Keylase's NVFBC patch. Would either of these prevent booting, specifically using shim and GRUB?

Re: Will these things interfere with Secure Boot?

As far as I know, you can enable secure boot to get Win to register that you have it set up and then turn it off immediately after doing the upgrade. That is what I did and i ran into no problems. That being said im not sure about the packages that you are referring too.

I personally D-B Win11 and Arch with no problems, using two separate disks.

If you are using two disks I would suggest unplugging the disk containing arch when doing the install to ensure Win doesn't mess with it in any way.

Hope this helps

Unrelated side note: Is your username referring to the White Center hardcore band from Seattle of the same name?

Re: Will these things interfere with Secure Boot?

I was planning on doing something similar to your suggestion (there's ways to disable the checks when installing) but I can't because of Valorant. (yeah, I know, the anti cheat sucks dick but it's a damn good game and I'm not worried about it because everything important is on arch)

I appreciate the response, though.

As for the band, no, it's not, but I'm sure as hell aware of them as it's all that comes up for my username (which I was not aware of when I chose it).
