Boot loader icon uses incorrect theme

Question

I'm dual booting Elementary OS and Microsoft's Windows. Using the refind boot manager.

My Elementary OS icon uses the default theme's icon + sizing instead of whatever theme I set in refind.conf. Everything else about the theme seems to work fine (including the Windows icon). Any idea what might be causing this?

I've tried three different themes, all containing icons/elementary_os.png, and the Elementary OS icon doesn't work on any of them.

The above image should be using this icon.

refind http://www.rodsbooks.com/refind/ version: 0.10.5

Is this the boot loader? What boot loader is it? – ctrl-alt-delor Apr 14 '17 at 23:00 — ctrl-alt-delor, Apr 14 '17 at 23:00

The files /.VolumeIcon.icns and /.VolumeIcon.png on the partition with elementary OS are overwriting the theme icon. You need to rename or remove those files to get it working.
