I have secure boot enabled.
Is there some how-to explaining with details how to proceed.
I'm not
very good with efi boot system nor secure boot.
You should know that secure boot as implemented in most linux
distros is
"security theater".
Another complaint about Trusted Execution Environments and Secure
Boot
is, they only make a statement/attestation about the system in the
past. A system with resident malware exploited after boot will still
report Ok.
Extra work is needed when initread and kernel are separate,
and /boot should be encrypted:

linux-and-initrd>
The existing Fedora secure boot configuration may offer some
protection for those
who also boot Windows.
I'm not sure what any of this has to do with installing Nvidia drivers,
but then I've never enabled Secure Boot.

I'm not sure what the current status of your system is, but the usual
'howto' is

That, of course, assumes that you already have a working system that can
'dnf install' the packages appropriate to your card. If that's the case
it is best to wait, after dnf completes, for the actual modules to be
built and installed.
On my systems that takes several minutes, particularly if there are
multiple kernels. I usually run 'atop', after dnf has quit, to watch
the sequence of akmods-related events. When it all calms down 'sudo
systemctl reboot' might work.
