-# Which types of boot loaders to search:
+# Set the screen's video resolution. Pass this option two values,
+# corresponding to the X and Y resolutions. Note that not all resolutions
+# are supported. On UEFI systems, passing an incorrect value results in a
+# message being shown on the screen to that effect, along with a list of
+# supported modes. On EFI 1.x systems (e.g., Macintoshes), setting an
+# incorrect mode silently fails. On both types of systems, setting an
+# incorrect resolution results in the default resolution being used.
+# A resolution of 1024x768 usually works, but higher values often don't.
+# Default is "0 0" (use the system default resolution, usually 800x600).

+
+# Launch specified OSes in graphics mode. By default, rEFInd switches
+# to text mode and displays basic pre-launch information when launching
+# all OSes except OS X. Using graphics mode can produce a more seamless
+# transition, but displays no information, which can make matters
+# difficult if you must debug a problem. Also, on at least one known
+# computer, using graphics mode prevents a crash when using the Linux
+# kernel's EFI stub loader. You can specify an empty list to boot all
+# OSes in text mode.
+# Valid options:
+# osx - Mac OS X
+# linux - A Linux kernel with EFI stub loader
+# elilo - The ELILO boot loader
+# grub - The GRUB (Legacy or 2) boot loader
+# windows - Microsoft Windows
+# Default value: osx
+#
+#use_graphics_for osx,linux
+
+# Which non-bootloader tools to show on the tools line, and in what
+# order to display them:
+# shell - the EFI shell
+# gptsync - the (dangerous) gptsync.efi utility
+# about - an "about this program" option
+# exit - a tag to exit from rEFInd
+# shutdown - shuts down the computer (a bug causes this to reboot EFI
+# systems)
+# reboot - a tag to reboot the computer
+# Default is shell,about,shutdown,reboot

+# Directories in which to search for EFI drivers. These drivers can
+# provide filesystem support, give access to hard disks on plug-in
+# controllers, etc. In most cases none are needed, but if you add
+# EFI drivers and you want rEFInd to automatically load them, you
+# should specify one or more paths here. rEFInd always scans the
+# "drivers" subdirectory of its own installation directory; this
+# option specifies ADDITIONAL directories to scan.
+# Default is to scan no additional directories for EFI drivers
+#
+#scan_driver_dirs EFI/tools/drivers,drivers
+
+# Which types of boot loaders to search, and in what order to display them:
# internal - internal EFI disk-based boot loaders
# external - external EFI disk-based boot loaders
# optical - EFI optical discs (CD, DVD, etc.)

# manual - use stanzas later in this configuration file

+
+# When scanning volumes for EFI boot loaders, rEFInd always looks for
+# Mac OS X's and Microsoft Windows' boot loaders in their normal locations,
+# and scans the root directory and every subdirectory of the /EFI directory
+# for additional boot loaders, but it doesn't recurse into these directories.
+# The also_scan_dirs token adds more directories to the scan list.
+# Directories are specified relative to the volume's root directory. This
+# option applies to ALL the volumes that rEFInd scans. If a specified
+# directory doesn't exist, it's ignored (no error condition results).
+# The default is to scan no additional directories.
+#
+#also_scan_dirs boot,EFI/linux/kernels
+
+# Directories that should NOT be scanned for boot loaders. By default,
+# rEFInd doesn't scan its own directory or the EFI/tools directory.
+# You can "blacklist" additional directories with this option, which
+# takes a list of directory names as options. You might do this to
+# keep EFI/boot/bootx64.efi out of the menu if that's a duplicate of
+# another boot loader or to exclude a directory that holds drivers
+# or non-bootloader utilities provided by a hardware manufacturer. If
+# a directory is listed both here and in also_scan_dirs, dont_scan_dirs
+# takes precedence.

+# Scan for Linux kernels that lack a ".efi" filename extension. This is
+# useful for better integration with Linux distributions that provide
+# kernels with EFI stub loaders but that don't give those kernels filenames
+# that end in ".efi", particularly if the kernels are stored on a
+# filesystem that the EFI can read. When uncommented, this option causes
+# all files in scanned directories with names that begin with "vmlinuz"
+# or "bzImage" to be included as loaders, even if they lack ".efi"
+# extensions. The drawback to this option is that it can pick up kernels
+# that lack EFI stub loader support and other files. Most notably, if you
+# want to give a kernel a custom icon by placing an icon with the kernel's
+# filename but a ".icns" extension in the same directory as the kernel, this
+# option will cause the icon file to show up as a non-functional loader tag.
+# Default is to NOT scan for kernels without ".efi" extensions.
