Win10 EFI vs Legacy

[Senior-Switchmonkey]

There has been a lot of discussion wrt Win10 on the Mac and something about Windows signing certificates and eventually bricking the ROM.

I’ve dumped the ROM in my cMP and there are 2 x certificate signings listed there in my binwalk results.

I have confirmed that my Win10 installation is indeed Legacy. How do I go about getting rid of those 2 certificate entries? I’ll bet it’s a lot of work, isn’t it?

from what I have read up on the Mac Pro section of the forums is the EFI version is causing the extra certificates, not the legacy version. you may want to read up on these threads

and yes it does sound like a lot of work, or at least, having a lot of knowledge/expertise on the topic of the BootRom reconstruction. a particular forum member tsialex seems to be the bootrom guru

Yeah. I’ve been dealing with @tsialex on this issue. It’s all sorted.
