    Hi,

    I'm trying to install rEFInd, when I run the install.sh script I got the following message:

    ShimSource is none
    Installing rEFInd on OS X....
    Warning: root device could not be found
    Could not find an EFI partition. Aborting!

    The partition table is:

    $ diskutil list
    /dev/disk0
    #: TYPE NAME SIZE IDENTIFIER
    0: GUID_partition_scheme 320.1 GB disk0
    1: EFI 209.7 MB disk0s1
    2: Apple_HFS 240.9 GB disk0s2
    3: Apple_Boot Recovery HD 650.0 MB disk0s3
    4: Microsoft Basic Data BOOTCAMP 50.0 GB disk0s4
    /dev/disk1

    $ diskutil list /dev/disk0s1
    /dev/disk0
    #: TYPE NAME SIZE IDENTIFIER

    3: Apple_Boot Recovery HD 650.0 MB disk0s3
    4: Microsoft Basic Data BOOTCAMP 50.0 GB disk0s4

    Anyone knows what could be wrong ?

    The machine is MBP 13" early 2011.

    You might need to follow the OS X manual installation instructions:
