When I boot my mac it just shows my mac partition. No Gentoo. What am I doing wrong?
The conf file is esp/EFI/refind/refind.conf and ASCII with no line terminators.
It doesn't even work when I only put: timeout 40. Timeout will then still be 20 ...
Thanks for all the help in advance!
Best regards

Chances are your version of rEFInd is loading from somewhere else. I note you say the filename is esp/EFI/refind/refind.conf. That's not an absolute file path, so I'm not sure if you mean by that leading esp that this is on the EFI System Partition (ESP) or something else. If it's on the ESP, it's conceivable that you're actually using another installation of rEFInd elsewhere (such as on the Mac's root partition); or vice-versa.

Hey guys!
So I prepared my refind.conf, but refind wont load my desired menuentry. I put the file into esp/EFI/refind/refind.conf
It looks like this:
#everything the same as in the sample, but this one entry added:
menuentry Gentoo {
icon /EFI/refind/icons/os_gentoo.icns
loader /EFI/Boot/kernel-genkernel-x86_64-3.14.14-gentoo.efi
initrd /EFI/Boot/initramfs-genkernel-x86_64-3.14.14-gentoo
options "ro root=UUID=dcb8f328-b280-4a8b-b45b-47fabb5b776f noapic"
}
