Hardware is mid-2011 Mac Mini. Partitioned Mac, installed Refind, then Leap 15.2 OS. Nothing after restart from Leap install. Used option key cold start to get back into Mac OS. Reinstalled Refind, restarted and was able to choose Leap from Refind menu. After doing usual post-install config stuff in Leap I rebooted and once again got blank screen. Same option key cold start got me back to Mac OS, same reinstall of Refind and restart got me menu again.
While in Leap I visited Sourceforge rEFInd page and downloaded the RPM file, then installed through YaST. This did not change anything. I eventually looked at Leap YaST Boot Loader Settings and unchecked 'Enable Secure Boot Support'. This gave me a better result, although not completely what I expected.
My current status is as follows: If I reboot Leap I do not receive the Refind menu but see the normal Leap 15.2 startup and OS load. The only way I can load Mac High Sierra is by using the option key during cold start or restart and choosing Mac OS. If I reboot from the Mac OS I get the normal Leap 15.2 startup and OS load.
My expectation and goal with this dual-boot system is to see the Refind menu after restarting either of the installed operating systems. Fairly sure I'm missing something here, with the inclination that I need to do something further with the Refind installation on the Leap side. I thought the Boot Loader drop down list in the YaST Boot Loader Settings might have an entry for Refind but it doesn't, and I'm not sure what 'Not Managed' is for. I didn't see any other settings in here that seemed relevant. System is usable at this point so that's good.
