Contributing

  1. Add your icon to the rEFInd-minimal-dark/icons folder.

  2. Install ImageMagick sudo apt install imagemagick.

  3. Run the script ./invert_icons.sh icon_1.png icon2.png icon_n.png using all your new icon names.

    • Alternatively, run ./invert_icons.sh to convert ALL the icons in rEFInd-minimal-dark/icons.

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-dark/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-dark/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-dark/icons/os_win.png
	loader /EFI/Microsoft/Boot/bootmgfw.efi
}

menuentry "OSX" {
	icon /EFI/refind/themes/rEFInd-minimal-dark/icons/os_mac.png
	loader /EFI/Apple/Boot/bootmgfw.efi
}

Entries that are autodetected should also show the proper icons.
