I was thinking of people who wanted to install their own keys. Some people think that since you have EFI you shouldn't need a bootloader. :-) But you're right, I think on the whole the critical thing is just to make sure that "secure" bootloaders from distros know how to load signed Xen / Linux images. Booting Xen directly is probably going to be a bit niche. That said, I'm sure there are people who will want to do it, so it probably should be on our "to-do" list.
I'm not sure the vendors have much choice in the matter, as long as a single vendor controls the majority of the market and can dictate terms. -George _______________________________________________ Xen-devel mailing list Xen-devel@xxxxxxxxxxxxx http://lists.xen.org/xen-devel
