-0.9.1 (?/??/2015):
+0.9.3 (??/??/2015):
+-------------------
+
+- Under OS X, install.sh can now be run from the recovery system. This may
+  help work around OS X 10.11's problems with System Integrity Protection,
+  since it should be possible to reboot into the recovery system to install
+  rEFInd without disabling SIP for the main installation, even for just one
+  boot.
+
+0.9.2 (9/19/2015):
 ------------------
 
+- Added "--keepname" option to install.sh. This option causes install.sh
+  to keep refind_x64.efi named as such rather than rename it as grubx64.efi
+  when using Shim. This option is meaningful only if the --shim option is
+  also used. This option passes the refind_x64.efi filename as an option to
+  Shim, which overrides the default filename of grubx64.efi. A big caveat:
+  Only Shim 0.7 and later supports this feature. (Shim 0.4 also works if a
+  refind_x64.efi is referred to as "\refind_x64.efi" on the command line,
+  but the need for a leading backslash to refer to a file in the same
+  directory as Shim is so confusing and wrong that I cannot in good
+  conscience support it.) I've not seen signed Shim binaries between 0.4
+  and 0.7, so I don't know if any of them might work.
+
+- Implemented a workaround for a bug in Shim 0.8 that prevented
+  authentication of more than one binary. If any filesystem drivers were
+  installed, the first one would be verified, leaving rEFInd unable to
+  launch anything else unless it was signed by a key in the computer's main
+  Secure Boot db list.
+
+0.9.1 (9/13/2015):
+------------------
+
+- When rEFInd identifies the root (/) partition via the Freedesktop.org
+  Discoverable Partitions Specification, it now checks two of the
+  partition's attributes, as per the DPS (see
+  http://www.freedesktop.org/wiki/Specifications/DiscoverablePartitionsSpec/):
+  - The partition's read-only attribute determines whether to pass a "rw"
+    or "ro" option to the kernel.
+  - If the partition's do-not-automount flag is set, rEFInd will not pass
+    it as a "root=" option to the kernel. This flag can be used to remove
+    all but one partition from consideration as a root (/) partition if a
+    system has more than one with the correct type code.
+
+- Improved Freedesktop.org Discoverable Partitions Specification support:
+  Previously, if no refind_linux.conf file was present but an /etc/fstab
+  file was found, rEFInd ignored the Discoverable Partitions Specification
+  filesystem-type codes. This was fine if /etc/fstab contained a valid "/"
+  filesystem specification, but if that was absent, the result was no
+  "root=" specification being present. Under these circumstances
+  (refind_linux.conf absent, /etc/fstab present but lacking a "/" entry),
+  rEFInd now tries to identify a device to specify as "root=" via the
+  Discoverable Partitions Specification.
+
+- Fixed bug that caused "Found match!" and a prompt to press a key to
+  continue to be printed if any partition used the Freedesktop.org
+  Discoverable Partitions Specification root-partition GUID. (This
+  was leftover debugging/testing code that I somehow missed deleting.)
+
 - Added icon for Elementary OS.
 
 - Added /etc/lsb-release to files scanned for clues about the Linux
