This signature is the problem, as it is a red hat signature and has to
be removed.  That was the other part of the solution.

The code page was a legitimate issue, but only part of the issue.
When I tried utf-8 for the /boot/efi partition booting failed. There
must be some hardcoded linking of vfat and ISO8859 somewhere.  I don't
think there is a technical reason precluding the use of utf-8 with vfat.

For the process that actually worked to yield a signed custom kernel,
