      When created with XO-Lite, secure boot is enabled but when created with XO5 secure boot is disabled.

        @ph7 where are you seeing secure boot in XO-Lite? I don't even have that option 🤔 After creating a VM in XO-Lite, I see boot settings and Secure Boot is shown as Disabled

              Here is a hint in xo 5 when the newly created vm is running.

                Are we still talking about the same template? VM config depends entirely on the template selected

                  It is the same pool.

                      To be precise, The non working VM created in XO-Lite is not running, it is when it get stuck while trying to boot.

                        Hello.
                        I spotted a small bug in the XO-Lite system page: Secure boot was always showing Disabled I'll fix this issue soon.

                        According to my tests, your VM isn't booting because Secure Boot is enabled, but your pool isn't configured for it.
                        If I remember correctly, in XO 5, Secure Boot is disabled by default, but in XOLite, if your template sets "platform.secureboot" to true or auto, the VM will be created with Secure Boot enabled.
                        Can you confirm that if you disable Secure Boot on your VM, it boots correctly?

                        ping @lsouai-vates to plane the possibility to enable/disable secure boot in the XOLite/XO6 UI, and possibly transform auto to false if the pool isn't compatible. Or at least, as in XO 5, warn the user

                          Yes, I can confirm if I disable the Secure boot option the VM will start.
                          After a quick flash of the pxe boot screen, the Debian installer will appear, and I can continue the installation.
