    That would lower the barrier to entry significantly. It doesn’t address the issues with the bios but someone mildly adventurous would have a much easier time going forward.

    I think something like that would have to be sponsored by and maintained by a big distro though. I’m afraid if it was a community effort the amount of bikeshedding would stop it before it even began.

      It would completely eliminate the bios issue, would it not? It would prevent them from ever needing to enter the bios at all.

        They would most likely still have to disable secure boot.
