So "vmlinuz-linux-lts" has version "linux-lts", + which matches "initramfs-linux-lts.img". + +0.10.5 (3/4/2017): +------------------ + +- Two improvements to initrd detection for Linux kernels: + - If multiple initrd files match the kernel's version number, the file + with more matching characters after the version number is used, rather + than the first initrd file found. + - The "%v" string, if present in the refind_linux.conf file's second + field, will be replaced by the kernel version number. Thus, you can + specify options like: + "Boot with standard initrd" "ro root=/dev/sda2 initrd=initrd-%v-std" + "Boot with debug initrd" "ro root=/dev/sda2 initrd=initrd-%v-debug" + This enables using multiple initrd files per kernel, to be used for + different purposes. + +- Minor code optimization. + +- Add new key mappings: Backspace (Delete on Mac keyboards) works the same + as Esc, and Tab works the same as F2/Insert/+. This is done for the + benefit of new Apple laptops that lack physical Esc and function keys. + +- Fix to refind-install to work better with disks other than /dev/sd? and + /dev/hd? devices. + +- Fixes to touch/tablet support to improve reliability. + 0.10.4 (10/9/2016): -------------------
