The output of the command makes it clear that you are not using systemd-boot, so at some point something you installed installed the package.

I think that it was because of my attempt to install via Legacy BOOT *USB Storage Device and not UEFI BOOT USB PMAP (now shown as opensuse-secureboot) when pressing f12 during machines POST.

Well thanks again for your insight and help, I am working on understanding this better as you may well can tell.

Really interesting. That tool is only when you are using BTRFS in system partition:

Did you create that image by booting to a system with no existing partition table? What happens might depend on whether existence of Grub is already evident on a system.

I think this was occurring due to me attempting Legacy Boot < USB Storage Device < openSUSE installer. More info above if interested. You can tell secureboot openSUSE boot is working correctly by displaying DELL symbol with Tumbleweed displayed at the bottom of head/display after LUKS key is opened.

BLS boot loaders

Contain a bit of information about BLS boot loaders here in post maybe…

I think your system installs sdbootutil cause you have encrypted partitions.

Found out why, it’s there because I was running SELinux.

You wrote them you have installed “sdbootutil”, but you didn’t notice you HAVE NOT it installed!!

[panorain]

Sorry for the mistake about this. Thank you for pointing that out.
