[Solved]reFind does not work with UUID

I am trying to install Arch Linux from scratch. When I turn on my PC, rEFInd works no problem, but when I select my Arch installation, I get
I edit my refind_linux.conf like this. Minimal options works but the other options are not working

"Boot with standard options"  "root=PARTUUID=12a05086-ec4a-9357-14e7-9b66fc486a64 rw rootfstype=ext4 initrd=boot\amd-ucode.img initrd=boot\initramfs-linux.img"
"Boot to single-user mode"    "archisobasedir=arch archisodevice=UUID=59187920-a7f6-4c98-ad04-b4286f64fde2 single"
"Boot with minimal options"   "ro root=/dev/nvme0n1p4 initrd=boot\amd-ucode.img"

When I boot with other options:

Starting systemd-udevd version 253.1-3-arch ERROR: device '/dev/cryptroot/root' not found. Skipping fsck. mount: /new_root: no filesystem type specified. You are now being dropped into an emergency shell. sh: can't access tty: job control turned off [rootfs ]# 

I get my disk list using blkid

Can you help me, how to correct refind_linux.conf?

Re: [Solved]reFind does not work with UUID

I found the error by myself, boot was showing EFI of main disk, I changed the fstab and reinstalled refind and it works.
