"it appears there is no way to boot OSes other than Mac OS and Windows without disabling secure boot entirely."

I am personally okay with that, so long as it can be turned off.

Can confirm that the T2 MPB on my desk right now can't see a clonezilla USB stick (booting with option key) even with "No Security" and "Allow booting from external media" checked

The stick boots fine on a non-T2 Mac Mini

Is it UEFI bootable? I believe thats a requirement with newer Macs.

Aha - it wanted GPT and also the 64 bit version.

Thanks for the pointer.
