Most of + these drivers originated with rEFIt, although the HFS+ driver seems to + have come from Oracle's VirtualBox, with some files from Apple. I hadn't + included these drivers previously because the build process proved + challenging. As it is, they don't work on my Mac Mini, I suspect because + the build process with the UDK2010 development kit may not work with the + EFI 1.x that Apple uses. + +- Addition of support for drivers in the "drivers_{arch}" subdirectory of + the main rEFInd binary directory (e.g., "drivers_x64" or "drivers_ia32"). + Drivers may continue to be placed in the "drivers" subdirectory. + +- Added new feature to eject CDs (and other removable media): Press F12 to + eject all such media. This function works only on some Macs, though (it + relies on an Apple-specific EFI extension, and this extension isn't even + implemented on all Macs, much less on UEFI-based PCs). + +- Fixed a problem that could cause GRUB 2 to fail to read its configuration + file when launched from rEFInd. + +0.3.5 (5/15/2012): +------------------ + +- Removed the GRUB 2 detection "reciped" added with 0.3.2, since I've + received reports that it's not working as intended. + +- Added re-scan feature: Press the Esc key to have rEFInd re-read its + configuration file, tell the EFI to scan for new filesystems, and re-scan + those filesystems for boot loaders. The main purpose is to enable + scanning a new removable medium that you insert after launching rEFInd; + however, it can also be used to immediately implement changes to the + configuration file or new drivers you load from an EFI shell. + +- Fixed a bug that could cause the scroll-right arrow to be replaced by the + scroll-left arrow under some circumstances. + 0.3.4 (5/9/2012): -----------------
