hi, i wanna dual boot win10 64bit Pro with bitlocker+secureboot on, using refind with "fydeos".

I am testing it on virtualbox 7, /w uefi on, secureboot on.

I guess there is TWO problem which I found materials on how to solve them.

  1. refind is unsigned for secureboot,
    solution: I need to use the preloader method.
    yeah this worked, after many times when I figure out the tinyacore binary NOT working,
    and the GNU one worked.

  2. win10 bitlocker fo what PCR7 problem, dislike someone boot before itself.
    solution: use bootnext in menuentry to make refind reboot using windows's .efi

I finished "1" but stuck on "2".

Currently:

A. my refind bootorder by using the showorder tool:

B. blue screen from bitlocker:

C. refind config:

the config shows bootnum as 4 places while
in the config demo, it only shows 2 places of "80",
makes it hard to figure out the problem.

thanks
