Behavior is unchanged if + default_selection is set. Note that this behavior depends on the ability + of rEFInd to store an EFI variable in NVRAM. It therefore fails on + systems with flaky NVRAM storage. You can view the previously-booted + loader in the + /sys/firmware/efi/efivars/PreviousBoot-36d08fa7-cf0b-42f5-8f14-68df73ed3740 + variable under Linux. + +- Added icon for Mageia Linux (os_mageia.png). + +- Fixed bug that could misidentify a not-quite-GUID as a GUID in a + manual boot stanza's "volume" line. + +- I've updated my personal build system, and therefore the rEFInd Makefiles + and related files, to use TianoCore UDK2014 rather than UDK2010. + +- Added "deep_uefi_legacy_scan" token. When not set (the default), rEFInd + does not modify EFI NVRAM settings when scanning for BIOS-mode boot + loaders on UEFI-based (non-Mac) computers. Some computers require + uncommenting this setting for rEFInd to reliably detect some BIOS-mode + boot devices. Passing "0", "off", or "false" as an option resets it to + the default value (useful in a loaded secondary configuration file to + override a setting in the main file). + 0.8.1 (5/15/2014): ------------------
