The openSUSE installation DVD will of course boot, having all the
proper signatures that you needed to install the OS in the first place.
And it will be booting the kernel present on the DVD, which is signed by
the SUSE key.
In case you wanted to create your own rescue DVD that'd be booting
custom kernels, that'll be possible, too, using the same shim loader
you'll be able to enroll your MOK, or just use one if already present on
the system.

Vojtech, would this apply to the current openSUSE 12.1 - or are you

Of course only about future implementation, we don't have any signatures
on openSUSE 12.1 and thus it won't work with Secure Boot enabled.

Thank you for confirming what I suspected.
My apologies for using the wrong name for the CD I mentioned above,
however I was wondering how a bootable CD such as the SystemRescueCD
which comes from systemrescuecd.org
(http://www.sysresccd.org/SystemRescueCd_Homepage), and similar bootable
media, would boot under this UEFI process?
