If rEFInd works, you don't need to use bless to load an EFI stub kernel. |

Actually, you just need to get rEFInd working, and it should find your |
| 12 |
EFI stub kernel automatically. Make sure it's copied to the right |
| 13 |
partition (EFI, sda1) and called accordingly (based on the rEFInd |
| 14 |
documentation, it should start with 'vmlinuz' and end with '.efi'). Also |
| 15 |
make sure, that the refind_linux.conf file is in the same directory as |
| 16 |
the kernel, to pass boot arguments. |

I kept OSX installed on my MacBook, so I actually have no experience |
| 19 |
with rEFInd without an OSX partition. |
