see 1804r331

Special notes for the rEFInd branch:

  • Differences:
    • in BIOS mode: no difference but also no advantage
    • in UEFI mode: the additional boot manager rEFInd is a workaround for some GRUB problems

The Wubiuefi configuration for rEFInd provides:

  • a boot entry for the installed OS (environment icon, e.g. Ubuntu icon)
  • a boot entry for Windows (Windows icon)
  • optional boot entries for other installed OS
  • a boot entry for GRUB (penguin icon)
  • a boot entry for the MokManager (key icon)
  • ......

The boot entry for the installed OS provides boot options like GRUB menu (see Adjusting Boot Options ).

If the boot entry for the installed OS does not work, the boot entry for GRUB provides the standard menus. There are reports that the standard GRUB menus do work even if they don't work work without rEFInd.
