The only problems I have experienced with rEFInd occurred when the new system files weren't being copied correctly to EFI/arch directory. Once I overcame that problem it has worked fine. John

Linux-3.7.7 is the last version that boot, each version after it don't. Gummiboot stopped to boot in v22, only v17 boots for me. When I choose the arch entry in the boot loader and it become freeze at the boot loader screen. The interaction of bootable and kernel/gummiboot versions is a mess on my system. The versions I cannot boot from form a dense set! I always bring an arch livecd with me (my UEFI mobo wont boot from USB). Currently I'm busy so I don't have time to debug it. As I don't see anyone talking about boot problems I'm blaming my Samsung laptop. I hope to have some time to debug and put the blame in someone else... Regards, Kazuo Teramoto If you want to avoid to use the livecd, you could install a second kernel, like from repo-ck and have it as an altrenative bootoption (I also have problems with some kernels here, there is allready a thread on that topic).

Linux-3.7.7 is the last version that boot, each version after it don't. Gummiboot stopped to boot in v22, only v17 boots for me.

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

I'm having this issue with linux 3.7.2-1 too. I use gummiboot-efi and file from core (5.11-1). Linux 3.7.1-2 boots ok. The image of linux 3.7.2-1 builds and is copied to the correct paths. I tried to remove i915 from MODULES and change the compression back to the default gzip, but I still can't boot from 3.7.2-1. My MODULES only has i915, and the HOOKS array is ~~ HOOKS="base udev autodetect plymouth modconf block plymouth-encrypt filesystems consolefont usbinput fsck" ~~ Regards, Kazuo Teramoto signature.asc Description: signature

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.

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
