It automatically showed the refind bootloader and all my antiX installations (and the Windows installation). If you cannot install it manually as described by the rEFInd website, then using the refind debian package should work to install to the EFI partition.ĮDIT: just installed the refind package from the debian reposĪfter installing it asked if I wanted to install the binary to ESP (the EFI partition), I said yes and, when done, rebooted. ![]() I understand USB doesn’t seem to b an option. This reply was modified 3 months, 3 weeks ago by PenguinGuy. If it does work, it would probably be a good addition to the antiX package installer (since multi-boot has been posted many times before in this forum but with no easy answer). Well, that’s kind of the problem I’m trying to explain (I can’t boot with a USB so I can’t use or depend on a USB).īasically if I can’t know the Debian install will work with antiX then I’m not going to be able to take that risk right now. Worst case scenario (if something goes wrong) is going with antiX-live USB and use Boot repair to regenerate the EFI file for antiX and re-set it as first EFI option. I did it the manual way described in the website (haven’t tested the debian package yet, as I wanted to understand what every step did, as I also wanted to enable touch in the rEFInd config) I think they mean install rEFInd from live-USB instead of doing the installation from inside the installed environment. I actually read a thread where you helped a user with a similar issue, but it wasn’t clear whether they actually installed rEFInd or another multi-boot system in the end. I’m avoiding a USB install because it seems the boot ability on my USB drive is worn out & doesn’t work after installing antiX (although it still formats & the files are readable). However, the rEFInd site says this installs scripts which may corrupt & break the boot of your OSes & it is better to install it with a USB drive. What I’m thinking of doing is using the debian package of rEFInd to install it on my SSD version of antiX. ![]() * any of my live-USBs I connected before booting the system (very handy for not having to enter the UEFI bios to select boot device). * my antiX installed system (installed with EFI) I had it working in my old tablet before it died, and could perfectly see: ![]() I don’t actually get what you are trying to do.Īre you installing rEFInd in the USB or in the hard-drive?įor install in the system, you just need a big enough EFI partition >100MBs) and install it there (either with the debian semi-automatic install or with the detailed instructions in the refind website). ![]()
