Something has gone seriously wrong: import_mok_state() failed
by 8amclass from LinuxQuestions.org on (#4WHPX)
Good day,
I have just created an account here, after searching through Google and trying out several solutions with no luck.
I'm trying to install Ubuntu on a PC with a brand new hard drive. there is no OS installed on it.
I created a bootable Ubuntu Usb key, and started the installation process, but realized the newly installed hard drive wasn't recognized for some reason. So I decided to restart and boot into the BIOS to see if everything was ok (apparently so).
After rebooting on the key, to attempt another install, I know have the following error message :
Code:Failed to open \EFI\BOOT\mmx64.efi - Not Found
Failed to load image \EFI\BOOT\mmx64.efi: Not Found
Failed to start MokManager: Not Fond
Something has gone seriously wrong: import_mok_state() failedI have tried several solutions, with no luck.
However, I have read that I needed to copy the grubx64.efi file in EFI/BOOT, paste it in the same folder, and rename it mmx64.efi
However, the usb disk is in read-only, and I cannot find a single way of making it writeable.
EDIT : when I make a cp command, I get a message saying
Code:cp: cannot create regular file 'path here': Read-only file systemCould someone help me out on either :
1/ solving my initial problem (if ever my suggested solution appears to be blatantly wrong
2/ guiding me into making the usb key writable, so I can create that mmx64.efi file ?
Thank you so much!
Best,
Christian.
