I have no experience with refind but for my UEFI systems I accomplish this using efibootmgr and a simple batch file. The machine always boots Linux by default but from within Linux I can tell it to reboot into Windows mark@science2:~$ sudo efibootmgr BootCurrent: 0003 Timeout: 1 seconds BootOrder: 0003,0000 Boot0000* Windows Boot Manager Boot0003* ubuntu mark@science2:~$ cat bin/RebootWindows sudo efibootmgr -n 0000 reboot mark@science2:~$ HTH, Mark
