> some serious hacking

I guess "Reboot into Recovery, Open the Secure Startup Utility and allow booting from external media and Set it to No Security" counts as serious hacking now :)

That simply disables Secure Boot, which is not what sanlyx wants because you don't get the security benefit of replacing the manufacturer provided PK and/or KEK with your own so that only images you signed will boot.
Sure, you don't get your own secure boot, but the point is, it's not "omg apple lockdown no third party OS possible at all"
