 <p>Beginning with version 0.6.2, I've included RPM and Debian package files for rEFInd. If you have a working RPM-based or Debian-based Linux installation that boots in EFI mode, using one of these files is likely to be the easiest way to install rEFInd: You need only download the file and issue an appropriate installation command. In some cases, double-clicking the package in your file manager will install it. If that doesn't work, a command like the following will install the RPM on an RPM-based system:</p>
 
-<pre class="listing"># <tt class="userinput">rpm -Uvh refind-0.6.11-1.x86_64.rpm</tt></pre>
+<pre class="listing"># <tt class="userinput">rpm -Uvh refind-0.7.5-1.x86_64.rpm</tt></pre>
 
 <p>On a Debian-based system, the equivalent command is:</p>
 
-<pre class="listing"># <tt class="userinput">dpkg -i refind_0.6.11-1_amd64.deb</tt></pre>
+<pre class="listing"># <tt class="userinput">dpkg -i refind_0.7.5-1_amd64.deb</tt></pre>
 
 <p>Either command produces output similar to that described for <a href="#installsh">using the <tt>install.sh</tt> script,</a> so you can check it for error messages and other signs of trouble. The package file installs rEFInd and registers it with the EFI to be the default boot loader. The script that runs as part of the installation process tries to determine if you're using Secure Boot, and if so it will try to configure rEFInd to launch using shim; however, this won't work correctly on all systems. Ubuntu 12.10 users who are booting with Secure Boot active should be wary, since the resulting installation will probably try to use Ubuntu's version of shim, which won't work correctly with rEFInd.</p>

 <p>With any luck, rEFInd will start up at this point. If not, you can check your settings using a shell or an emergency system for your OS of choice. In an EFI shell, you might type <tt class="userinput">bcfg boot dump -b</tt> to view your boot loader entries and verify that rEFInd appears at the top of the list. Be sure to check the pathname for typos. If you continue to have problems, you might look into giving rEFInd a <a href="#naming">fallback filename</a> that your firmware will recognize.</p>

+<h2>Using OS X Whole-Disk Encryption</h2>

+
+<p>If you're using OS X's Whole-Disk Encryption (WDE) feature, you must do two extra things:</p>
+
+<ul>
+
+<li>You must install rEFInd to the ESP. Unfortunately, as described earlier, this can result in a delay (usually of 30 seconds) as the firmware launches rEFInd. See the upcoming <a href="#sluggish">section on fixing sluggish Mac boots</a> if you run into this problem.</li>
+
+<li>You must uncomment the <tt>dont_scan_volumes</tt> line in <tt>refind.conf</tt> and ensure that <tt>"Recovery HD"</tt> is <i>not</i> among its options. (You can use a blank line or provide a dummy value if you want to scan all your volumes.) Alternatively, you can create a manual boot stanza to boot OS X.</li>
