Hi All,

So I'm trying to setup triple-booting on my Santa Rosa MBP, using rEFIt as my boot-loader. However, whenever I install refit and reboot, I always start up with the flashing folder/question mark. However, if i boot off CD, then tell it to startup with location of the Macintosh HD, everything boots fine. If I pull out the refit files from /efi, everything works fine again.

Has anyone had any success with refit and the new MBP? Is this possibly a new-hardware-issue?

Its possibly a new hardware issue as the new MBP has almost entirely new internals. Only thing that is probably the same as the last revision is the atheros wireless card and the superdrive.
