Dual boot failure after Windows update?

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



Microsoft's August security update included a patch to prevent
vulnerable GRUB2 (susceptible to bypassing UEFI secure boot)
installations from booting. 

https://www.omgubuntu.co.uk/2024/08/windows-update-breaking-linux-dualboot-fix

The update was supposed to not install on already-configured dual boot
systems, but that apparently failed, so lots of dual-boot systems had
their Linux boot blocked after the update.

I wondered if up-to-date Fedora users were affected by this issue.
Would like to know before I apply Windows updates whether I will need
to deal with it.

TIA for any information, experiences.
