Hello! I'm using macOS (OpenCore Legacy Patcher) dual boot with linux and I choose macOS as default_selection on refind.conf. However refind choose to start OS from EFI which in my case is broken. The only way to enter on macOS is to choose "Boot macOS from preboot".

Is there a way to modify refind.conf in order to choose this option by default istead of boot macOS from EFI?

Thank you!

You can set any unique part of the description as the default_selection to have rEFInd use that; for instance:

default_selection = preboot

Assuming there's only one preboot option, this example should cause it to be used as the default selection on every boot.

Thank you for the answer! But my system recognise 2 type of preboot: one is from MacOs and the other one is from OpenCore. Whaty type of command do I need to write near default_selection?

Thanks
