    Hi all,

    i have problem with my new Macbook Pro 13 2018 :( When i copy all necessary files in MacOS and restart Macbook, then appear just and only Recovery mode and no rEFInd manager :/ Is there any solution? On my old Mac is rEFInd manager running.

    Using this guide:
    https://egpu.io/bootcamp-setup-guide-tb3-macbook-pro/

    Thx for help

    This sounds like you may have neglected to disable System Integrity Protection (SIP). See the rEFInd documentation page on SIP for details.

    Im getting the same thing. I've disabled SIP, turned off secure boot, allowed booting of external media. I'm running a 2018 13inch macbook pro. When i install refind, it looks to have completed, no errors in the install - but i dont see refind in the startup disk in system prefs, nor does it boot by itself, nor can i see it in the startup manager if i hold option.

    Tried running the install a few times, the files are on the ESP volume, but my mac seems to be ignoring them.

    Not sure what else i can do.

    Please see the rEFInd documentation on SIP:

    If that doesn't help, then you'll need to report more details. The output of efibootmgr -v (typed as root or using sudo) from a Linux installation is likely to be helpful. (You can boot a Linux emergency disk, if necessary, to do this.)
