Minimalistic black rEFInd theme

rEFInd is a simplistic boot manager for UEFI based systems. This is a clean and minimal black theme for it.

rEFInd Minimalistic

Usage

  1. Locate your refind EFI directory. In our OpenCore hackintosh use case the refind directory is /EFI/BOOT/ though it will depend on where you mount your ESP and where rEFInd is installed.

  2. Clone this repository into the applicable refind directory.

  3. To enable the theme add include theme-minimal-black/theme.conf at the end of refind.conf.

Here's an example hackintosh menuentry configuration

menuentry "Arch Linux" {
    icon /EFI/BOOT/theme-minimal-black/icons/os_arch.png
    loader vmlinuz-linux
    initrd initramfs-linux.img
    options "rw root=UUID=dfb2919d-ff78-48db-a8a7-23f7542c343a loglevel=3"
}

menuentry "Windows 10" {
    loader /EFI/Microsoft/Boot/bootmgfw.efi
}

menuentry "OpenCore" {
    ostype   "MacOS"
    graphics "on"
    icon     /EFI/BOOT/theme-minimal-black/icons/os_opencore.png
    volume   "EFI"
    loader   /EFI/OC/OpenCore.efi
}

Entries that are autodetected should also show the proper icons.
