Rocky Linux 8.5 is now out with Secure Boot support and updated components. The enterprise OS is yet another free and open-source CentOS alternative based on Red Hat Enterprise Linux.

Derived from Red Hat Enterprise Linux 8.5, Rocky Linux 8.5 is here to introduce an important feature for the mass adoption of this CentOS Linux alternative, namely Secure Boot support.

This is the first release of Rocky Linux to include the official Rocky Linux signed Secure Boot shim, but users need to validated it to ensure that it’s properly activated. As such, the developers ask users to run a few commands after installing Rocky Linux 8.5.
