Un petit compte-rendu de l'installation de #Primtux sur un ordinateur portable loRdi fourni aux lycéen⋅nes par la région #occitanie avec la découverte de #rEFInd au lieu de #Grub "empêché" par HP/Microsoft (ça me conforte dans l'idée d'éviter ces marques).

Also ich habe ein aktuelles #Win11 mit #refind und #gentoo stabil und problemlos am laufen. Ich würde fast sagen das Win 10 da mit localtime und blockieren der Platte nerviger war.

Dites les linuxiens, sur mon pc avec Windaube et Manjaro j'ai mis #rEFInd en boot manager, personnalisé avec un joli thème et un fond perso toussa...
Seul souci, quand je quitte Windows et que je redémarre a froid ou a chaud, rEFInd ne trouve pas mon clavier usb. En sortant de Manjaro pas de souci par contre...
Aled... Si vous avez des idées je suis preneur
Merchiiii :blob_rave:

TIL how simple it is to setup #ThinkPad #UEFI #dualboot (providing one OS is #Windows)

- Install Windows, leaving space free
- Install #osOfChoice (#NetBSD in my case) into free space
- Copy preferred bootx64.efi into /EFI/Boot
- Set ThinkPad BIOS to boot from the drive, *not* "Windows Boot Manager"

Default boot is now osOfChoice

To boot Windows, press F12 and just select "Windows Boot Manager"

Confirmed on #T480 and #T430

Had been using #refind (which is still great for more complex cases)

Install ubuntu dual boot on older mac mini (2014) #dualboot #partitioning #uefi #mac #refind

@newdefined Ich hab hier #FreeBSD und #Devuan mit ZFS-root laufen. FreeBSD ist natürlich mega-einfach. Devuan ging mit debootstrap auch einfach, nachdem ich mich entschlossen hatte alle Anleitungen zu ignorieren. In dem Zusammenhang hab ich dann auch noch #GRUB durch #rEFInd ersetzt.
Kernel und initrd mußte ich leider auf eine #BTRFS-Partition packen.

Wenn Du Fragen hast; inzwischen kenne ich Wege wies gehen könnte.

I've updated my #Windows partition like 6 times and I am actually really surprised that my boot menu has not died out. Long Live #rEFInd and #VoidLinux

Nerdiest thing I've done all week by far...

Today I spent an extra couple hours on the command line while installing #linux to make sure the entire disk is encrypted at rest, except the ESP - while setting up #secureboot with custom keys - then saving signed unified kernel images to the ESP just so I can boot multiple different kernels with #refind instead of #grub. (refind normally can't do encrypted /boot).

How about you? Not just tech, anything that makes you nerd out!

Another #Windows11 update, another manual re-enabling #refind so I can dual boot #netbsd

Imagine being so insecure that a user might want to run your OS that you have to keep overwriting the boot preferences to only boot it...

I still need to lookup the bcdedit command each time :)

bcdedit /set "{bootmgr}" path \EFI\refind\refind_x64.efi

@0xF21D I did it in my "legacy" unsupported 2011 27" #iMac. I'm running #ubuntu #MATE (with #compiz) on it and it's snappy and AWESOME to use. If you want to keep your copy of #macOS in dual boot, you just need to install #refind (bootloader) from APT once you finish the installation. #linux

What's your go-to tool for #readlater purposes?

Used #instapaper for a long time, but it doesn't connect with my #kobo #ereader.

#Pocket would work with Kobo, but … I feel weirdly against it?

Used #refind for a while, but that gives me even *more* stuff to read, which is unfortunate.

#alfread crashes too often and … fails to work with more than one device?

#matter won't remove articles from the list once read.

Any recommendations, experiences?

Now I dualboot #pop_os for gaming and #voidlinux for evrithing else. Also #refind is amzing.

Ich hab die Tage #Refind gefunden und finde es echt cool. Da bekommt man täglich eine Auswahl kuratierter Links und Artikel zu ausgewählten Themen und kann einfach herumstöbern. Das ganze ist sogar kostenlos.

Besonders spannend finde ich, dass man auch aktuelle Forschungsartikel gelinked bekommt; sowas habe ich tatsächlich schon länger gesucht.

This #Debian #Linux wiki page just saved my life by introducing me to #rEFInd. Had an odd issue with a drive all of a sudden and rEFInd allowed me to boot into the system so I could reinstall my bootloader properly. This tool is invaluable. https://wiki.debian.org/GrubEFIReinstall

@freedcreative@merveilles.town I've used #refind with a mouse before:

Not sure if that means it works with touch.

Bonjour chez vous !

Un peu de technique, un peu de temps, voilà un Macbook de 2006 qui reprend du service.

I could use some help with restoring MacOS on an old MacMini (2012). Right now it runs Elementary OS (Ubuntu based) and I want to reinstall MacOS.
I created 3 different boot sticks using 3 different methods (no second Mac at hand), but they do not show up in the boot manager (both build-in and Refind). Internet recovery won't work as well.
Anyone?
#macos #linux #refind #efi

I got my new machine at work today, iMac Pro. Got to say the packaging is very fancy, very boutique.

Haven't really used it yet, tried airdrop to transfer files from a MacBook Pro 1 m away. Nope, they wouldn't find each other.

Any hints/tips/warnings regarding Linux dualboot?
