You can manage arch-based tools with some manual work, though it often isn't worth the time. If you're interested in secure boot and a continuously updated distribution, consider OpenSUSE Tumbleweed. It may lag behind Arch in package updates, but it offers strong stability for a rolling release and is quite user-friendly. It also includes secure boot by default.
Ubuntu, Fedora, and OpenSuSe all include this signed shim loader by default. It’s unclear if other distributions still provide it. The Arch version in the AUR relies on Fedora, while Manjaro has a guide on its Wiki for setup.
You could also turn off secure boot. Windows 11 should function properly. It seems the system needs a PC that supports secure boot without needing it activated.
Shim is a project developed by Matthew Garrett for Fedora on Red Hat, released as open source to allow broader access.
