Exceptions are if the partition name is one of three generic + names used by GPT fdisk: "Microsoft basic data", "Linux filesystem", or + "Apple HFS/HFS+". These are ignored in favor of the descriptive fallback + (e.g., "20 GiB Btrfs volume") + +- It's now possible to specify a volume by partition GUID number in a + manual boot stanza. This should be more reliable (albeit also more + awkward) than using a filesystem number (such as fs0: or fs1:). + +- Fixed memory-allocation bug that could cause error message displays, + and possibly hangs, when re-scanning boot loaders. + +0.7.9 (4/20/2014): ------------------ -- Added detection of German-language FAT (non-)boot sector created by - iPartition to keep it out of the Mac boot menu. +- Attempt to fix rEFInd perpetually re-scanning after ejecting a disc on + some Macs. + +- Added check to remove redundant (or non-functional if Secure Boot is + active) kernel entries for Ubuntu, which is now including two versions of + kernels, one signed and the other unsigned. + +- Fixed bug in install.sh that could cause it to display error messages + if the dmraid utility was not installed. + +- The HFS+ driver now reports a correct volume name. + +- Fixed some EFI filesystem driver bugs that could cause lockups under + some circumstances. These bugs could affect any of the filesystem + drivers. + +- Added "gdisk" option to the "showtools" configuration file token. When + active, this adds gdisk.efi or gdisk_{arch}.efi, if present in the + EFI\tools directory, to the tools row. + +- Fixed mistaken identification of the MOK utility as the "MOK utility + utility." + 0.7.8 (3/9/2014): -----------------
