> Any installed distribution should have a bootloader signed with its own key that will continue to boot

I'm kinda concerned here: as long as there's no mandatory security upgrade requiring a reboot, I'm the kind of person to reach six months of uptime with my desktop (yup, Linux is that stable, a far cry from Windows).

So I'm concerned about not being about to boot in x months and forgetting why (ah, yes, Microsoft having a key expiring).

Am I correct in my understanding that this only affects my installation media and not my already installed systems?

Lastest Debian stable FWIW.

Oh well, I take it it's going to be mokutil and whatnots when I get back home.
