Upgrades will remember the initial + selection. + +- Modified time-based sorting of loaders in a single directory to push + anything starting with "vmlinuz-0-rescue" to the end of the list. Fedora + gives its rescue kernels filenames that begin with that string, and if + such a kernel happens to be the most recent, treating it normally will + cause it to become the default when kernel folding is in use. This is + almost certainly undesirable, so this change keeps the rescue kernel at + the end of the list instead, which is saner. + +- Significantly reworked the project's Makefiles. This should have no + impact on ordinary users, and even most developers should barely notice + it; but it should make future extensions to additional platforms or + building in different environments easier. + +- Added workaround to gptsync for issue with some Macs' EFIs that caused + the program to skip through all prompts, thus accepting the default + option. This would normally cause gptsync to do nothing. + +- Added type code 53746F72-6167-11AA-AA11-00306543ECAC (Apple Core Storage, + gdisk type AF05) to list of partition types recognized by gptsync. + +- Removed Luxi Sans Mono font, since I discovered it was not open source; + and changed the default font from Nimbus Mono to Liberation Mono. + +- Added support for compiling rEFInd for ARM64 (aka AARCH64 or aa64). This + works with both GNU-EFI and Tianocore UDK2014.SP1.P1. This support is + currently poorly tested. In particular, I used QEMU on an x86-64 computer + to create a virtualized ARM64 environment; I've not yet tested on a real + computer. I couldn't get QEMU to create a video card, so I used a serial + terminal, which means that the graphics features are untested -- I ran + rEFInd with "textonly" uncommented in refind.conf. I've tested the ext4fs + driver but no other drivers, although they all compile. (So does gptsync, + although it's unlikely to be useful on ARM64.) Some rEFInd features are + meaningless on ARM64, such as BIOS-mode boot support, anything geared + toward Macs (csr_values/csr_rotate, spoof_osx_version, etc.), and + enable_and_lock_vmx. + +- Fixed bug that caused rEFInd to fail to scan EFI boot loaders on + removable media when rEFInd itself was launched from the fallback + filename. + - Moved detailed descriptions of refind-install from installing.html to a refind-install man page. To keep this information Web-accessible, I've also created HTML versions of the three man pages and linked them into
