+- 0.4.0 (5/20/2012)—I've bumped up this version number more than usual to reflect the addition of four filesystem drivers (for ext2fs, ReiserFS, HFS+, and ISO-9660) to the rEFInd package. These drivers originate with the original rEFIt, VirtualBox, and Clover boot loader projects. You can learn more on the drivers page. To facilitate inclusion of drivers on the CD image, rEFInd also now supports reading drivers from architecture-specific subdirectories—drivers_x64 and drivers_ia32 for x86-64 and x86 systems, respectively. This version also adds the ability to eject removable media on some Macs (this won't work on UEFI-based PCs, unfortunately). Finally, this version fixes a problem that could cause GRUB 2 to be unable to read its configuration file in some settings when launched from rEFInd.

- 0.3.5 (5/15/2012)—This version's biggest new feature is the ability to re-scan for boot loaders after launching the program. This is done by pressing the Esc key, which causes rEFInd to re-read its configuration file, to tell the EFI to reconnect all disks, and to do a fresh scan of all disks for loaders. This is useful if you insert a removable disk after starting the computer, if rEFInd starts before a disk has fully settled, if you make a change to the configuration file, or if you manually load a driver. This version also fixes a minor bug that could cause the scroll-right arrow to be replaced with a left-pointing arrow under some circumstances; and I've removed the scan for a BIOS Boot Partition that I added in 0.3.2, since I'm told it isn't launching correctly. (BIOS-mode GRUB 2 can still be launched on Macs from its boot code in the MBR.)
- 0.3.4 (5/9/2012)—The biggest change to this version is the addition of the icons_dir configuration file token, which enables you to specify a directory that holds icons that override those in the default icons subdirectory. See the Theming rEFInd and Configuring the Boot Manager pages for details. This version also reduces flicker when moving your selection around the screen and modifies the install.sh script so that it can be used directly after building rEFInd from source code. Related to this, building from source now creates a binary that includes an architecture code—refind_ia32.efi or refind_x64.efi rather than refind.efi.
