André Vitor de Lima Matos: My problem persist, preventing me from upgrade to linux 3.7.2. I have the same problem (and I don't use *testing*): When I upgraded to 3.6.11, after rebooting, rEFInd froze at the *rEFInd - Booting OS* stage and downgrading to 3.6.10 didn't help.

I can boot in BIOS mode though. I've not tested in BIOS mode, as I'm sure it works, 'cause if not, a new release fixing problem would have been launched. But I prefer to avoid a upgrade of one release instead of leaving a bleeding corner (UEFI). I've done some tests, including adding kernel image directly to NVRAM via efibootmgr with proper options, and still 3.7.1-2 boots ok, and 3.7.2-1 freezes before any boot message. So, the problem is not with rEFInd, but with kernel and/or EFI implementation. -- http://www.google.com/profiles/andre.vmatos signature.asc Description: OpenPGP digital signature

No. If so, would the kernel booted and failed to complete boot process due to mismatch between kernel image/initramfs and installed modules. But the kernel does not even begin starting, stopping just after option is selected in rEFInd and message Starting vmlinuz-linux ...options of rEFInd is printed. -- http://www.google.com/profiles/andre.vmatos signature.asc Description: OpenPGP digital signature
[arch-general] rEFInd 0.6.4 + linux 3.7.2-1 fail to boot
Hi, everyone. I've a HP Pavilion g4 machine with UEFI, using rEFInd. After a upgraded to refind-efi 0.6.4-1 and linux 3.7.2-1, my system stopped to boot. rEFInd loads properly, and others boot options, like EFI Shell and Windows 8 are working, but trying to boot kernel 3.7.2 froze on the message in begin saying Starting vmlinuz-linux ...kernel options. initrd was built correctly. This issue only occurs with linux 3.7.2, downgrading to 3.7.1 makes system bootable again (from where I'm writing). rEFInd config file is basically default, only with timeout changed to 5. My boot options: root=/dev/AndreSYS/Arch resume=/dev/AndreSYS/Swap cryptdevice=/dev/disk/by-uuid/e38e188e-f775-41fe-9607-ce977c7716d8:syslvm ro add_efi_memmap rootfstype=ext4 -- https://profiles.google.com/andre.vmatos signature.asc Description: OpenPGP digital signature
