...

  i don't do encryption or raid so i keep things pretty
simple.

  i've been using refind for years without issues.  i also
have grub installed so if either of them breaks the other
is still likely going to work.

  i've also set it up so that each can be reached from the
other through their menus.

  i see you've solved your issue, but i just wanted to 
point out that it works and is ok for people who want to
try it out.
