Minimalistic rEFInd theme

rEFInd is an easy to use boot manager for UEFI based systems. This is a clean and minimal
theme for it.
Usage
1. Locate your refind EFI directory. This is commonly /boot/EFI/refind though it will
depend on where you mount your ESP and where rEFInd is installed. fdisk -l and
mount may help.

2. Create a folder called themes inside it, if it doesn't already exist

3. Clone this repository into the themes directory.

4. To enable the theme add include themes/rEFInd-minimal/theme.conf at the end of

refind.conf .

Here's an example menuentry configuration (from the screenshot)

menuentry "Arch Linux" {

icon /EFI/refind/themes/rEFInd-minimal/icons/os_arch.png
loader vmlinuz-linux
initrd initramfs-linux.img
options "rw root=UUID=dfb2919d-ff78-48db-a8a7-23f7542c343a loglevel=3"
}

menuentry "Windows" {
icon /EFI/refind/themes/rEFInd-minimal/icons/os_win.png
loader /EFI/Microsoft/Boot/bootmgfw.efi
}

menuentry "OSX" {
icon /EFI/refind/themes/rEFInd-minimal/icons/os_mac.png
loader /EFI/Apple/Boot/bootmgfw.efi
}
 Entries that are autodetected should also show the proper icons.

Background sizes
If you find the background looks blurry it may be due to the included wallpaper being an
incorrect resolution for your monitor. You can download the original high quality wallpaper,
resize it as appropriate, and replace the background.png .

You can of course also choose your own background!
