    Signing VirtualBox Kernel Modules

These are the steps I followed enable VirtualBox on my laptop without
disabling UEFI Secure Boot. They're nearly identical to the process described
on [Øyvind Stegard's blog][blog], save for a few key details. The images here
are borrowed from the [Systemtap UEFI Secure Boot Wiki][systemtap].

Install the VirtualBox package (this might be different for your platform).

Creating a key

You can change "MOK".priv/.der to any desired name; "CN=" MUST hold your username, signing the modules may not work otherwise (on shim, possibly due to a bug).
$ openssl req -new -x509 -newkey rsa:2048 -keyout MOK.priv -outform DER -out MOK.der -nodes -days 36500 -subj "/CN=John Doe/"
