SYSTEMD-EFI-BOOT-GENERATOR(8)                 systemd-efi-boot-generator                SYSTEMD-EFI-BOOT-GENERATOR(8)



NAME
       systemd-efi-boot-generator - Generator for automatically mounting the EFI System Partition used by the current
       boot to /boot

SYNOPSIS
       /usr/lib/systemd/system-generators/systemd-efi-boot-generator

DESCRIPTION
       systemd-efi-boot-generator is a generator that automatically creates mount and automount units for the EFI
       System Partition (ESP), mounting it to /boot. Note that this generator will execute no operation on non-EFI
       systems, on systems where the boot loader does not communicate the used ESP to the OS, on systems where /boot
       is an explicitly configured mount (for example, listed in fstab(5)) or where the /boot mount point is
       non-empty. Since this generator creates an automount unit, the mount will only be activated on-demand, when
       accessed.

       systemd-efi-boot-generator implements systemd.generator(7).
