idk never turned it on.worked perfectly fine. even used winslop on it without secureboot enabled for a while before making the switch full time (went straight from win to linux).

Literally one BIOS setting.
The secured core PCs are pretty specifically targeted at corporate customers anyway. If they’re paying more for a secured core certified pc they probably aren’t worried about changing the OS .

I'm dual booting so I need that thing on for win11 to not scream at me, or vice versa.

Not a fan of a "look at my post of a Reddit thread" tbh.

To be fair, the original post was almost entirely devoid of anything but a link and a three word complaint.
It's hard to expand on nothing, especially at 5am.

Sorry it's 5am here so I just reposted it without writing anything.

That's an AMD issue though not Lenovo and it affects all notebooks with certain AMD CPUs.

TL;DR: you have to change one BIOS setting before you may install Linux.
God forbid!
