Issues with rEFInd on 14,2 iMac running OSX 10.9.5

-

i'm trying dual boot mac ubuntu 14.10, i've found virtual machine solution not fit needs. refind bootloader giving me issues on 14,2 revision imac running osx 10.9.5, though.

ran install script , exited successfully, upon shutting down , starting again there no refind screen , machine went straight osx. tried rebooting few times, there no change. re-ran install script, there no change.

finally, tried hand installation, , gave no changes. files installed /efi/refind, when reboot machine goes straight osx no evidence refind ever installed.

suggestions?
 

i installed refind in leopard partition. maybe doesnt work in mavericks+?
