This feature is disabled by default, except + on CD-R and USB flash drive images, on which it's enabled. To enable it, + you must make TWO changes to refind.conf: Uncomment the new "csr_values" + item and add "csr_rotate" to the "showtools" line (uncommenting it, too, + if it's commented out). If desired, you can set more values on + "csr_values"; these are comma-delimited one-byte hexadecimal values that + define various SIP states. When SIP/CSR rotation is activated, a new + shield icon appears among the tools. Selecting it causes the next defined + value to be set and a confirmation message to appear for three seconds. + +- Added display of current System Integrity Protection (SIP) mode to + "About" display. + +- Added mountesp script for OS X to (you guessed it!) mount the ESP. + +- Renamed support scripts: install.sh to refind-install, mvrefind.sh to + mvrefind, and mkrlconf.sh to mkrlconf. + +- New icons! The old ones were getting to be a jumbled mess of styles, + particularly for OS tags. I used the AwOken icon set + (http://alecive.deviantart.com/art/AwOken-163570862) for the core icons, + then expanded from there by creating my own icons and modifying icons for + Debian and Elementary OS. I'm also trying to keep better track of + copyrights and licenses on icons. Between that and some icons being for + OSes that probably see very little use (FreeDOS and eComstation, for + instance), a few OS icons have been lost. If you prefer the old icons, + you can continue to use them by upgrading rEFInd, renaming icons-backup + to something else (say, icons-classic), and then adding an "icons" line + in refind.conf to point to the old icons directory. + +- Changed from .zip to .tar.gz as source code archive format. I did this + because Linux is the only officially-supported build platform, and + tarballs are a more natural fit to a Linux environment. I'm leaving .zip, + .deb, and .rpm files as the formats for binary packages. + - Added detection of System Integrity Protection (SIP; aka "rootless") mode to OS X portion of install.sh script. When detected, and if no existing rEFInd installation is found, the script now prints a warning and brief
