One of the easiest boot fixers is Macrium. I use a USB to sata adapter with a two tb samsung evo ssd. Plenty of room for images and tools. Once Strelec is setup on a drive, boot failed pc from USB, open Macrium, left side is "fix boot problems". A box opens showing the failed boot drive, select it an click next or finish. Reboot and pull usb drive. It has always worked for me and I have used it many times Also, once you create your usb strelec drive, in the EFI partition are two bat files that change the uefi boot. The "microsoft_mode" bat file changes from grub boot to a microsoft secure boot that will pass on a secure boot enabled pc. The grub2 mode bat file changes boot back to the grub boot. microsoft mode bat file: Code: @echo off set mode1=MICROSOFT set mode2=GRUB2 set tail=MODE cd /d "%~dp0" if exist sstr64.efi ( move /y bootx64.efi temp64.efi move /y bootia32.efi temp86.efi move /y sstr64.efi bootx64.efi move /y sstr86.efi bootia32.efi move /y grubx64.efi temp.efi ) cls echo. if exist "[%mode2%_%tail%]" (move /y "[%mode2%_%tail%]" "[%mode1%_%tail%]">nul) else (echo.>"[%mode1%_%tail%]") echo %mode1% BOOT ENABLED! echo. pause exit
This is only true if the clder current Microsoft Certificate of Authority 2011 (CoA) is in place. As this certificate is currently being revoked on more updated OSes, Strelec's build will no longer work under SECURE BOOT. I would like to have that certificate updated to 2023 by Sergei, if possible, to allow SECURE BOOT operation after the 2011 CoA revocation. At the moment, current versions of RUFUS (my ISO > UFD creator of choice) will warn you of that fact when the UFD is built.
Is there a way to put some shortcuts to various applications on the desktop of the WinPE 11-10 Sergei Strelec? We tend to use three programs extensively so not having to dive down the menus would be nice.
Update from within Rufus and it will download the dbx files and fix iso's it creates to have the new certificates fixing the problem.
The update check gets the new version, check again if it didn't ask to update dbx files. Mine asked me if I wanted to update the DB files for secure boot. I use the portable version and it creates a sub folder named rufus and put the updated boot files there with a dbx_ preface.
