I run Snow Leopard myself, and the StartupItem works fine for me. Can you provide more details why this is necessary? Will this work with earlier Mac OS X releases than 10.6?
The StartupItem specifically disables rEFIt at boot, and re-enables it at shutdown time. That is done so it doesn't show up when waking from Safe Sleep (suspend-to-disk / hibernation), which would be both unintuitive and dangerous for your file systems. I'd like to keep this property if at all possible.
If you would like to refer to this comment somewhere else in this project, copy and paste the following link:
