I have a system with two installations of F41 and a Windows 10 installation. Interested in moving it to secure boot which is not currently enabled in the bios. It is an HP Z440

You have not stated a problem or asked a question.
What is your question?

Then turn it on. Fedora won't care unless you have NVidia or other proprietary drivers.

The nvidia drivers do not require secure boot, never have. Maybe you are thinking about rpmfusions support to optionally sign nvidia drivers for secure boot?

I never said they required it. I said Fedora doesn't care if you enable secure boot or not. But if you enable secure boot then you will need to handle getting the drivers signed (probably already done) and the signature loaded (probably not).

Thanks Samuel
Turning secure boot on worked with no problems. Even with using the legacy NVIDIA GT710 video with the Rpmfusion drivers.

Are you sure you're using the nvidia drivers? I guess the keys could have been installed even if secure boot wasn't enabled, but I'm curious if they were.

Yes, but is it loaded? Does "lsmod" show it in the list?

To support Samuel, some external driver are picky with secure boot on, e.g, VBox is
I was curious if the module building system would load the signing keys even if secure boot was disabled. Apparently it does, which is a good thing.
