-0.7.8 (?/??/2014):
+0.8.7 (3/1/2015):
+-----------------
+
+- Fixed install.sh bug that caused inappropriate installation under the
+ name bootx64.efi (or bootia32.efi) under Linux, with a failure to update
+ the boot entries in NVRAM, has been fixed.
+
+- Added identification of XFS as filesystem type in volume descriptions.
+
+- More fixes to filesystem type detection code. Previous version sometimes
+ identified FAT or NTFS (or anything with a boot loader) as a whole-disk
+ device rather than the correct filesystem type.
+
+- Added protections to the code to reduce the risk of crashes that might
+ occur when dereferencing NULL pointers in various situations.
+
+- I'm deprecating the use of filesystem numbers (as in "fs0:") because
+ they're unreliable -- filesystem numbers can change between boots and
+ might not be the same as those used in an EFI shell or other program.
+ Sooner or later I'll remove code supporting this feature. In the
+ meantime, if it doesn't work for you, please switch to using filesystem
+ labels, partition labels, or partition GUIDs.
+
+- Added detection of FreeBSD's BIOS-mode GPT boot loader. Previously,
+ rEFInd could detect FreeBSD's BIOS-mode MBR boot loader, which gave
+ FreeBSD an appropriate icon on Macs; but the BIOS-mode GPT boot loader
+ code is different, so some recent FreeBSD installations showed up with
+ generic grey diamond icons. This change creates FreeBSD icons instead.
+
+- Added "Secure Boot [active|inactive]" notice to "about" menu for x86
+ (32-bit) systems, since there are now a few 32-bit UEFI systems that
+ support Secure Boot. (AFAIK, these are mostly tablets and convertibles
+ such as the ASUS T100.)
+
+- Added KeyTool.efi and KeyTool-signed.efi to list of MOK managers. KeyTool
+ is the "super-deluxe" Secure Boot key and hash manager provided as part
+ of the efitools package.
+
+- Fixed more instances of "invalid parameter" errors on some EFIs.
+
+- Improved Secure Boot detection in install.sh.
+
+- install.sh should no longer complain when copying Shim or MokManager over
+ itself.
+
+0.8.6 (2/8/2015):
+-----------------
+
+- Removed special case of ignoring an HFS+ name of "HFS+ volume", since the
+ old rEFInd HFS+ driver that produced this name for all HFS+ volumes has
+ long since been updated to deliver a real name.
+
+- Addition of new Windows 8 OS icon. On Macs and for BIOS/legacy boots, the
+ new icon is now used for Windows Vista, 7, and 8, while the old one is
+ used for earlier versions of Windows. For EFI-mode boots, the new icon is
+ used universally.
+
+- If the NTFS driver is loaded, rEFInd now scans NTFS volumes on Macs for
+ the presence of Windows boot files, and removes any NTFS volume that
+ lacks such files from the BIOS/legacy boot list. This should help
+ unclutter the display on Macs that contain NTFS data partitions.
+
+- Fixed bug that caused misidentification of both whole disks and NTFS
+ volumes as being FAT. (This bug affected the identification of devices
+ and locations in the rEFInd menu, not actual access to devices.)
+
+- Code refactoring to clear out legacy-boot functions from the
+ ever-expanding refind/main.c file.
+
+- Added new "badges" option to the "hideui" token in refind.conf. This
+ option hides the device-type badges associated with the OS boot options.
+
+- Reverted rEFIt commit r472, introduced in rEFInd 0.8.5 to support more
+ BMP images because I've received bug reports that it's causing existing
+ selection images to fail to load.
+
+- Fixed install.sh bug that caused misidentification of installation
+ directory under OS X if an already-mounted ESP has spaces in its path.
+
+- Fixed Mac-specific install.sh bug that could cause misidentification of
+ the ESP on disks with partition numbers of 10 or above.
+
+
+0.8.5 (2/1/2015):
+-----------------
+
+- Added NTFS EFI filesystem driver.
+
+- Minor improvements to filesystem driver framework code.
+
+- Changes to
+
+- Fixed bug in Btrfs driver's address reference.
+
+- Improved install.sh to make it smarter about figuring out where to
+ install on Macs. Specifically, this version now upgrades existing
+ installations, if found (as it always has under Linux), rather than
+ blindly install to EFI/BOOT; it installs to EFI/refind if not existing
+ installation is found; it installs using the --shortform option to bless,
+ which seems to eliminate the 30-second delay problem; and it can handle
+ an HFS+ ESP, which it treats as a separate HFS+ volume (as if the user
+ had used --ownhfs). These changes do not affect behavior under Linux.
+
+- Added missing check of architecture type for several tools.
+
+- Applied rEFIt commit r472, which adds support for BMP images with negative
+ height fields, indicating that the image is NOT vertically flipped. This
+ commit and r467 were not incorporated in the original rEFInd because I
+ forked it from a Debian rEFIt package that had been patched to build
+ under GNU-EFI, and was apparently based on a slightly earlier version.
+
+- Applied rEFIt commit r467, which improves Mac handling of legacy boots
+ from other than the first hard disk.
+
+
+0.8.4 (12/8/2014):
------------------
+- Tweaked default for dont_scan_volumes: Removed "Recovery HD". This change
+ better suits the needs of OS X 10.10 ("Yosemite") installations, but may
+ result in some stray Recovery HD entries on some Macs.
+
+- Updated icons for Fedora and Ubuntu and added an icon for Xubuntu.
+
+- Added new configuration option, "enable_and_lock_vmx", which sets an
+ Intel CPU feature that's required for some types of virtualization to
+ work. Most EFIs enable setting this feature in their own setup utilities,
+ but some (such as most Macs) don't.
+
+- If rEFInd can't locate an icons directory (either the default or one
+ specified by the icons_dir token), the program switches to text-only
+ mode.
+
+- If a loader contains the string "grub" and no other clue to the loader's
+ OS association exists, search for os_grub.{png|icns} (which is not
+ provided with rEFInd) or os_linux.{png|icns}. (Previous versions provided
+ a generic loader icon for GRUB.)
+
+- Fixed bug that caused dont_scan_files to not work with special-case
+ boot loaders (for OS X and Windows) when specifying the complete path to
+ the loader (e.g., EFI/Microsoft/Boot/bootmgfw.efi).
+
+- Added support for the iPXE network boot tool (see BUILDING.txt for
+ building and basic use instructions).
+
+0.8.3 (7/6/2014):
+-----------------
+
+- Added new feature: Setting "timeout = -1" in refind.conf causes rEFInd to
+ immediately boot the default option UNLESS a keypress is in the buffer
+ when rEFInd launches. In that case, if the keypress corresponds to a
+ shortcut key, the associated boot loader is launched; or if not, the menu
+ is displayed.
+
+- Added new icons for Clover boot loader and for Mythbuntu Linux
+ distribution.
+
+- rEFInd now displays the partition's label, when one is available, when
+ offering a BIOS-mode boot option for a partition with no filesystem
+ driver. This works only on Macs doing BIOS-mode booting.
+
+- Removed GPLv2 code from the FSW core files. This was done because the
+ Btrfs driver is derived from the GRUB Btrfs driver, which is licensed
+ under the GPLv3. Ironically, the GPLv2 and GPLv3 are incompatible
+ licenses, so ensuring that the Btrfs driver doesn't rely on GPLv2 code
+ was legally necessary. In most cases, I reverted to the original rEFIt
+ code, although I kept my own cache code; since I wrote it, I can
+ change its license to a BSD license.
+
+- Fixed bug that caused rEFInd to unload drivers immediately after loading
+ them. This didn't affect rEFInd's own drivers because they didn't include
+ the unload hooks, but it did affect some other drivers.
+
+- Changed default scan_all_linux_kernels setting from "false" to "true",
+ and commented the option out in refind.conf-sample. This should not
+ affect most people, since refind.conf-sample had this option commented
+ out, and most rEFInd users either use it that way or don't have Linux
+ kernels installed at all. I've made this change because I want rEFInd to
+ "do the right thing" by default in as many cases as possible. For a while
+ now, rEFInd has been excluding non-bootable files from its menu, and most
+ kernels "in the wild" now include the EFI stub. Thus, enabling this
+ support by default seems worthwhile. If you prefer to not scan Linux
+ kernels by default, simply uncomment the "scan_all_linux_kernels" line
+ and ensure it's set to "false".
+
+0.8.2.1 (6/8/2014):
+-------------------
+
+- Removed stray bit of debugging code that caused a prompt to press a
+ key to appear at rEFInd startup.
+
+0.8.2 (6/8/2014):
+-----------------
+
+- Changed behavior when default_selection is not set: It now boots the
+ previously-booted loader, assuming it's still available; if not, rEFInd
+ boots the first loader (as it does now). Behavior is unchanged if
+ default_selection is set. Note that this behavior depends on the ability
+ of rEFInd to store an EFI variable in NVRAM. It therefore fails on
+ systems with flaky NVRAM storage. You can view the previously-booted
+ loader in the
+ /sys/firmware/efi/efivars/PreviousBoot-36d08fa7-cf0b-42f5-8f14-68df73ed3740
+ variable under Linux.
+
+- Added icon for Mageia Linux (os_mageia.png).
+
+- Fixed bug that could misidentify a not-quite-GUID as a GUID in a
+ manual boot stanza's "volume" line.
+
+- I've updated my personal build system, and therefore the rEFInd Makefiles
+ and related files, to use TianoCore UDK2014 rather than UDK2010.
+
+- Added "deep_uefi_legacy_scan" token. When not set (the default), rEFInd
+ does not modify EFI NVRAM settings when scanning for BIOS-mode boot
+ loaders on UEFI-based (non-Mac) computers. Some computers require
+ uncommenting this setting for rEFInd to reliably detect some BIOS-mode
+ boot devices. Passing "0", "off", or "false" as an option resets it to
+ the default value (useful in a loaded secondary configuration file to
+ override a setting in the main file).
+
+0.8.1 (5/15/2014):
+------------------
+
+- Fixed bug that could cause rEFInd to fail to detect boot loaders stored
+ on the root directory of a partition.
+
+- Added two new bitmap fonts to those distributed with rEFInd: Ubuntu Mono
+ and Nimbus Mono. Both come in 12-, 14-, 16-, and 24-point sizes.
+
+- Messages about pauses for scanning and re-scanning of boot loaders are
+ now suppressed when doing an initial delayed scan when scan_delay is 1
+ second.
+
+- Improved centering of legacy boot option descriptions on some systems'
+ screens.
+
+- Fixed bug that could cause a BIOS-mode boot to boot from an inappropriate
+ device if that device had an innately high boot priority (as set by the
+ firmware).
+
+- Changed icons from ICNS to PNG form. There are several reasons to do
+ this, all of them minor; but together they're enough to warrant a change.
+ PNG is more common, and therefore more accessible to most users --
+ particularly those who don't use OS X. The PNG files are smaller than
+ their ICNS equivalents. PNG supports a wider range of sizes (although I'm
+ not now using anything that ICNS doesn't support, I might in the future).
+ The icon-scaling support added a few versions ago makes ICNS's support
+ for multiple icon sizes relatively unimportant.
+
+- Reversed order of search for icons by extension: rEFInd now searches
+ for PNG files before ICNS files, rather than the other way around. This
+ makes it possible to override a volume icon for rEFInd by giving it the
+ name .VolumeIcon.png, even when a .VolumeIcon.icns file exists on the
+ volume and is used by OS X.
+
+- Fixed bug that caused .VolumeIcon.icns to take higher-than-intended
+ precedence in icon setting for OS X.
+
+- Chainloading to BIOS-mode boot loaders now works on UEFI-based PCs when
+ rEFInd is built with GNU-EFI, not just when built with Tianocore.
+
+0.8.0 (5/4/2014):
+-----------------
+
+- The "dont_scan_volumes" parameter now also works with legacy-boot
+ volumes. Unlike with EFI volumes, where the option you pass must exactly
+ match an entire volume name, when applied to legacy-boot volumes, it
+ matches any part of the description that appears beneath the item when
+ you select it in the rEFInd main menu.
+
+- Can now boot in legacy mode from second (and probably later) hard disks!
+
+- rEFInd now limits the length of the firmware name string shown in the
+ system information screen to 65 characters. This is done because at least
+ one EFI presents a longer string by default, and this causes the entire
+ information display to come up empty on 800x600 displays.
+
+- rEFInd now uses the partition's name (as stored in the GPT data
+ structures) as a fallback for the filesystem's name if the latter can't
+ be found. Exceptions are if the partition name is one of three generic
+ names used by GPT fdisk: "Microsoft basic data", "Linux filesystem", or
+ "Apple HFS/HFS+". These are ignored in favor of the descriptive fallback
+ (e.g., "20 GiB Btrfs volume")
+
+- It's now possible to specify a volume by partition GUID number in a
+ manual boot stanza. This should be more reliable (albeit also more
+ awkward) than using a filesystem number (such as fs0: or fs1:).
+
+- Fixed memory-allocation bug that could cause error message displays,
+ and possibly hangs, when re-scanning boot loaders.
+
+0.7.9 (4/20/2014):
+------------------
+
+- Attempt to fix rEFInd perpetually re-scanning after ejecting a disc on
+ some Macs.
+
+- Added check to remove redundant (or non-functional if Secure Boot is
+ active) kernel entries for Ubuntu, which is now including two versions of
+ kernels, one signed and the other unsigned.
+
+- Fixed bug in install.sh that could cause it to display error messages
+ if the dmraid utility was not installed.
+
+- The HFS+ driver now reports a correct volume name.
+
+- Fixed some EFI filesystem driver bugs that could cause lockups under
+ some circumstances. These bugs could affect any of the filesystem
+ drivers.
+
+- Added "gdisk" option to the "showtools" configuration file token. When
+ active, this adds gdisk.efi or gdisk_{arch}.efi, if present in the
+ EFI\tools directory, to the tools row.
+
+- Fixed mistaken identification of the MOK utility as the "MOK utility
+ utility."
+
+
+0.7.8 (3/9/2014):
+-----------------
+
+- Added "debian" directory to source, which facilitates creation of Debian
+ packages. Packages built in this way are built with GNU-EFI and don't run
+ any post-installation script, so although the rEFInd binaries are on the
+ hard disk, they aren't installed to be bootable; you must manually run
+ install.sh. Also, at least on Ubuntu, the Make.common file's /usr/lib64
+ references must be changed to /usr/lib. This is more of a proof of
+ concept and a "leg up" for distribution maintainers than anything else.
+
+- Two new options, big_icon_size and small_icon_size, set the size of
+ the first-row OS icons and of the second-row tool icons, respectively.
+ The big_icon_size option also indirectly sets the size of disk-type
+ badges; they're 1/4 the size of the big icons. Default values are 128 and
+ 48, respectively, to match the actual icon files provided with rEFInd. If
+ the icon you're using is of a different size than you've specified,
+ rEFInd scales it. For best quality, you should both provide icons drawn
+ to the right size and set the icon sizes in refind.conf.
+
- rEFInd now automatically scales icons to fit the standard icon sizes.
This won't have any effect with the icons that come with rEFInd, but it
can help if you want to use another icon, since you needn't scale it in a
