This token + may now have either one or three options. If one, it's interpreted as it + has been in the past, as setting a default that's independent of times. + If you follow this default by two times, however, those are interpreted + as the start and end times (in 24-hour format) for a default setting. For + instance, "default_selection foo 8:00 17:00" causes foo to be the default + from 8:00 (AM) to 17:00 (aka 5:00 PM). You can include multiple + "default_selection" lines to set different defaults for a variety of + times. If they're in conflict, the last one takes precedence. Note that + times are hardware clock's native value, which may be local time or UTC, + depending on your computer. + +- Added support for a blank-screen startup: Set "screensaver -1" and the + screen saver will be initialized when rEFInd starts. If you set a low + "timeout" value, the result will be a boot straight to the default OS + unless you hit a key soon after rEFInd starts. Once you hit a key, the + screensaver will be disabled. + +- Modified install.sh and mkrlconf.sh to create a new Linux kernel + option set: "Boot without EFI storage paranoia," which passes the + efi_no_storage_paranoia option to the kernel. + +- Added --ownhfs {target} option to install.sh. This option causes rEFInd + to install to an HFS+ partition in a way that's more consistent with the + way the Mac's native boot loader is installed. Note that you should NOT + install to an already-bootable partition with this option, since it will + overwrite the existing boot loader, which would render OS X unbootable. + +0.7.5 (11/10/2013): +------------------- + +- Fixed bug that caused unbootable exFAT partitions to show up as + bootable on Macs with BIOS/CSM/legacy boot options enabled. + +- Fixed bug in install.sh that caused installs to the ESP on recent + versions of OS X to fail. + +- Fixed bug that caused rEFInd to hang on some Macs when multiple EFI + drivers were present. + +- Fixed bug that caused clear to default gray screen when launching OSes + with 'use_graphics_for' enabled, even when the rEFInd background is not + gray. Now rEFInd clears to the same background color used in its menu. + When launching OS X, though, the OS X boot loader will itself clear to + gray a second or so later; and when launching Linux, it will clear to + black a second or so later. + +0.7.4.1 (8/25/2013): +-------------------- + +- My initial 0.7.4 release broke legacy-boot ability on Macs, so I quickly + released this version using the original 0.7.4 filenames to fix the + problem. + +0.7.4 (8/25/2013): ------------------ - Fixed options passing to loader to include loader's filename as the first
