This page documents how to enroll a machine owner key that is created during the Nvidia driver installation (typically in GNOME Software).

Prerequisite

The Nvidia driver has been installed and a machine owner key to self-sign the driver has been created in GNOME Software (or in a similar tool that supports it).

Enrolling Self-signing Key after Reboot

In order to successfully reboot to Fedora Workstation after the Nvidia driver installation, you have to enroll the machine owner key you created during installation in GNOME Software. During rebooting you’ll be presented with the mokutil tool, follow the below steps to enroll the key:
