Secure Boot key error after running soup

[Terry Bradley]

After running soup today, I got the following error (see below).

Any idea how to fix this remotely (I can access the sensor via SSH)?

Thanks,

Terry

Thanks, Doug! I am going to send a guy to do this in per son (the sensor is far away from me). Will let you know the outcome.

Just to close the loop on this, we were able to fix this (sitting in front of the computer) by changing settings in the BIOS. Not sure how your can fix this remotely (sadly).
