### Turn UEFI on
Make sure UEFI is on. Most modern systems use UEFI, so it generally is by default.
### Disable Secure Boot
If secure boot is enabled it must be turned off since Linux boot loaders don't typically have digital signatures. Note that if you intend on running a dual-boot system with Windows and Linux you won't be able to use disk encryption on the partition containing Windows, as it requires secure boot.
