Here is a not so perfect way that should work. I am not using rEFInd right now so can't confirm its still working but it used to and so should now. I just tested some of the steps and cleaned up my earlier response to hopefully make this a little easier. Once done it should show up in rEFInd.
Basically, here is what I did:
Once you have everything working you will likely want to customize your chainloading experience. To do this, you will want to boot to Linux again, open the grub configuration text file for chromeos/brunch that is located now on your rEFInd EFI partition in that new folder you just created and adjust things like the time to show the chrome grub boot selection screen among other things.
If none of the stuff above worked, you may be able to add the grub boot settings directly to rEFInd manually. I haven't done it myself but the instructions for doing that should be listed on the rEFInd page. Should be similar to how you would manually add a Grub entry to a standard Linux grub bootloader though ymmv.
Hope that helps
I've been using Brunch on a flash drive on one of my machines. When booting this machine with the flash drive connected, rEFInd boot manager detects and adds Brunch to the boot menu (which also lists three linux distros and Windows).
While I've installed Brunch on separate drives before, this installation was to the second SSD, which also has Windows on it. I installed it from a linux distro running on the other SSD. I added the appropriate syntax to grub in Xubuntu, so I can boot into Brunch fine.
However, I'd like rEFInd to display an entry for Brunch so that I don't have to select Xubuntu in rEFInd and then select Brunch from Xubuntu's grub menu.
Is this possible, or is it because Brunch is installed as an image to a single partition when it's sharing a drive, whereas the installation creates numerous partitions when there is an entire drive reserved for the OS. It seems like the EFI partition hasn't been updated.
