    Your graciousness is appreciated. This is how I remember the Mac community was in the 1980s-90s, before it became overly corporatized, privacy infringing, and snarky. I switched to linux (mostly) about seven months ago after 38 years as a Mac owner starting with the 512K classic smiley-face Mac, and an Apple ][ Plus owner since 1980. I deeply respect the people who are putting up a good fight against subscription models, software 'phoning home,' and a lot of other stuff Steve said would never happen....

    Sorry to seem dense, but I read the ReadMe several times end-to-end and I used my browser search function to locate the word "Linux". It only appears in the last sentence: GZipped Loaders: RefindPlus only provides a stub support for handling GZipped loaders as this is largely relevant to ARM Linux. The stub support can be activated using the same support_gzipped_loaders configuration token as upstream. Maybe something got edited out along the way? I am guessing other linux learners may have avoided...

    Thank you so much for the information. I started working with RefindPlus on my 2012 Mac Mini Server briefly last week but I did not pursue it enough to test its potential yet. I've been working on my primary linux machine instead, but eventually I want to repurpose my old Mac Mini as a linux box or dual-boot. Is rEFInd Plus safe to deploy on Linux-only EFI volumes running on AMD hardware? *(ie, non-Intel, non-Mac). * Everything I see on the rEFInd Plus github page talks about Macs. rEFInd 0.1.4.0.2-1...

    I am confirming Robert K's experience with the error message in OP when attempting to load gdisk-efi-1.0.4 (latest) via rEFInd 0.1.4.0.2-1 (latest). This is too bad since both software packages are by the same author, and he mentions gdisk several places in the rEFInd documentation.
