I have a UEFI system, with the following partitions And the theming is very easy and much better than GRUB) (Reasoning is refind is much less complicated than grub less configurations and everything is contained in one directory. rEFInd does have many more features, though.I am trying to use rEFInd to boot my (dual boot) computer. As the thread's subject describes, there's no way to completely hide rEFInd.ĭon't get me wrong gummiboot is perfectly adequate for many purposes, and in fact if you prefer a text-mode boot loader to seeing icons and if you don't need to boot BIOS/legacy OSes, gummiboot should be fine. gummiboot can also store some of its defaults in NVRAM and pass some statistics about its actions to the kernel, although these are minor features, IMHO.
