[ubuntu] Secure Boot & LUKS

$
0
0
Greetings,

I am having difficulty setting up SecureBoot installation. I believe my laptop is capable, because when SecureBoot is enabled I am still able to boot onto the Ubuntu 13.04 Live disk.

I have a special setup, however. Windows is not installed, but the drive is using a GPT partition table. UEFI is working. My partitions are:

/dev/sda1: FAT32 EFI 512MB
/dev/sda2: ext2 BOOT 512MB
/dev/sda2: LUKS LUKS remaining ~465GB

Inside LUKS is an LVM:
SWAP: 16GB
/dev/mapper/ubuntu-root: root btrfs remaining ~450GB

Sub volumes include @ (root) and @home.

Firstly, unsigned kernels boot. Currently I am running 3.9.0-1-generic (x86_64). When SecureBoot is disabled, the signed kernels still do not boot. Signed kernels are unaware of my LUKS partition, do not engage in its decryption, yet I receive an error that "/dev/mapper/ubuntu-root" is unavailable. Furthermore, if I try to update initramfs:
Code:

update-initramfs -u -k all
It ignores the signed kernel.

I hope that if I can update initramfs and the signed kernel than I will be able to boot using the signed kernel (at least with SecureBoot disabled).

Any help is greatly appreciated!
