Description

rEFInd is a fork of the rEFIt boot manager. Like rEFIt, rEFInd can auto-detect your installed EFI boot loaders and it presents a pretty GUI menu of boot options. rEFInd goes beyond rEFIt in that rEFInd better handles systems with many boot loaders, gives better control over the boot loader search process, and provides the ability for users to define their own boot loader entries.

    Thanks for software and updates.

    rEFInd looks nice and is easily configurable by writing a config file - and a whole lot can be done just by moving and renaming files. Also, it Just Works and has sane defaults.
