Trouble installing rEFInd on Legion Go.
I’m getting a few errors while trying to install rEFInd to Legion Go using the Legion Go Tricks guide. Any help would be appreciated.

Read the error message, most likely you downloaded the wrong rpm file
If
refind-install is indeed directly in your Downloads, then it should be sudo ./refind-installThis is what is in my downloads folder.
so
sudo rpm-ostree install refind-0.14.2-1.x86_64.rpmRefind is intended to be in the ESP so I personally doubt using ostree here
refind installed this way has been tested by a bunch of LGO users, I can confirm that it works
Alrighty
but whether it's best to be installed this way, i don't know
¯\_(ツ)_/¯
It seems to be installing now. Thanks. Sorry, I wasn’t sure if I needed to adapt the version number to the guide or if I even had the correct file at the time.
so the
* in the refind-*.rpm is a wildcard that'll match to any string of characters. it looks like it matched on the src.rpm file first, which was causing the install to fail
since you had both the src.rpm and x86_64.rpm installedIn the guide, after running “sudo rpm-ostree install refind-*” it says to run “sudo rEFInd-install”. Is that correct?
just keep following the instructions, yeah
“Command not fount”
Thanks for all this help.
Reboot?
also, it's
sudo refind-install, no capitalizationSorry, Discord actually auto corrected to rEFInd. I copied/pasted into the console and got that error.
That's after a reboot?
I haven’t rebooted yet. Should I try to reboot into bios and set the boot order?
No, try rebooting then the install command again
refind-install
Rebooting now
That worked.
It’s all working now. Thank you for everything. I just need to flip it to portrait and install the theme. Thank you so much. My Legion Go is now perfect.
