Fairly new to rEFInd and was wondering if someone could shed some light on this. I have a macmini (with a fusion drive) bootcamped with OSX and Win7. I am attempting to modify refind.conf but can't find where it is installed.
When I install rEFInd a temporary Volumes/ESP folder is created and mounted. However after reboot the ESP folder disappears.
I've tried re-installing rEFInd with a modified refind.conf-sample but it keeps pointing back to the installed refind.conf that I can't find.
Essentially I want to be able to either a) find where the installed refind.conf file is so I can modify it, or b) completely uninstall rEFInd, and then re-install it with the newly modified refind.conf-sample
Any ideas? Thanks in advance

Hi,
i never installed refind to my main partiton on mac os x but i will make some assumptions that could help you. Asumming that you installed refind to your ESP (Efi System Partition), use the following command in a terminal.
diskutil list
Your ESP should be of type EFI. Keep its identififier in mind. It should be something like disk0s1. Now do
diskutil mount diskXsY
Fill in X and Y from the identifier of your ESP you found trough diskutil list.
Now your EfiSystemPartition should be visible in finder and refind should be probably located there.
