- +If you want to use one or more of these drivers, you can install them from the rEFInd binary package from the refind/drivers_arch directory, where arch is a CPU architecture code—x64 or ia32. The files are named after the filesystems they handle, such as ext4_x64.efi for the 64-bit ext4fs driver. You should copy the files for the filesystems you want to use to the drivers or drivers_arch subdirectory of the main rEFInd installation directory. (You may need to create this subdirectory.) Be careful to install drivers only for your own architecture. Attempting to load drivers for the wrong CPU type will cause a small delay at best, or may cause the computer to crash at worst. I've placed rEFInd's drivers in directories that are named to minimize this risk, but you should exercise care when copying driver files.
