Secure Boot does allow for Linux installation, just not any Linux installation. Some distros support it (like Fedora), some don’t (like Manjaro).

AFIAK, those that are “supported” merely were lucky enough to convince Microsoft to sign their Public Keys, so the machine would accept it. What happens when Microsoft refuse to sign linux distros?

Technically, a developer can contact vendors to include their keys to Secure Boot, but that would require asking all of them and them responding positively. So, in practice, it is commonly Microsoft that controls it since obviously just about any vendor will support their signatures.
