@aschiavon91 hey! Sorry for bothering and thank you for sharing this guide (it is a great starting point for making SB working on Pop_OS! 24.04 on my laptop), but maybe you can help with Secure Boot without Custom Mode or keys injecting directly into BIOS/firmware as on my laptop (Razer Blade 14 Ryzen 7940HS RTX4070) I can only enable/disable SB and that's it. No key deletion/injection/custom mode, etc.
So only option is MOK+shim with some tinkering available (and even with MOK I have to make another boot entry in order to "inject" MOK Manager summoning to enroll keys)
