[firula]

Hi,sorry my english I have installed 0.4.4 refind. and my problem is that when pressing alt in mac I get the boot cd but when Im going refind not boot from cd before I get in refit if I appeared, thanks and greetings

make sure you have the cd drivers installed. These are the iso drivers in the binary package. Basically make a 'drivers' subdirectory in refind and copy the cd iso driver to this new directory. Make sure you use the correct architecture e.g., 32-bit or 64-bit.

This stumped me for a while then refind finally recognized a cd...now I have a new problem related to the legacy error discussed elsewhere on this forum.

you need to edit your .config file to add searching for the optical drive

Mine is as follows:

scanfor internal,hdbios,optical,external

[firula]

scan_driver_dirs EFI/tools/drivers,drivers

Which types of boot loaders to search, and in what order to display them:

internal - internal EFI disk-based boot loaders

external - external EFI disk-based boot loaders

optical - EFI optical discs (CD, DVD, etc.)

hdbios - BIOS disk-based boot loaders

biosexternal - BIOS external boot loaders (USB, eSATA, etc.)

cd - BIOS optical-disc boot loaders

manual - use stanzas later in this configuration file

Default is internal,external,optical

scanfor internal,external,optical,cd

is not so? driver and put them in efi/refind/drivers_x64
