Bug description:
  Image: http://cdimage.ubuntu.com/daily-live/20190926/eoan-desktop-amd64.iso
  Device: Dell XPS 13 7390 (201908-27305)

  Note:
  - TPM2 is disabled (because of lp:1845454)
  - Secure Boot is enabled

  Install Ubuntu 19.10.
  Check the box "Install third party drivers". You'll have to input a password used by Secure Boot at the next reboot.
  Complete the installation and restart the device.

  Expected result:
  The device reboots in the MOK Management screen where you can enroll the new MOK. Then the boot process continues and you can log in Ubuntu.

  Actual result:
  The following error is shown for a few seconds, then the device turns off:

  Failed to open \EFI\ubuntu\mmx64.efi - Not Found
  Failed to load image \EFI\ubuntu\mmx64.efi: Not Found
  Failed to start MokManager: Not Found
  Something has gone seriously wrong: import_mok_state() failed: Not Found
