Question about Secure Boot with GRUB 2 and signed Linux images and initrds (ruderich.org)

I found this article/guide from 2016 by chance and I was wondering if anyone knew any cons for using GRUB

reason I'm asking for cons is cause I have a favorable bias towards GRUB so I thought it might be good to see what potholes might exist before going all in

mm I'll try to give ~~Moonpie's~~ your guide a go in a VM

Edit: oh lol/derp I somehow missed that moonpie is you😂, having a real brainfart it seems

reading ~~their~~ your guide I saw on the bottom

"Arch’s PKGBUILD, makepkg, and patch tools to patch the grub_efi_get_secureboot function of sb.c "

so I took a look at the repo and found: grub-install on EFI if forced #141 which was merged on Nov 13, 2023.

not sure if this is relevant but thought I'd share what I've found

anyways thanks for your comment and I also appreciate the helpful links

thank you!🤗
