Did it mean »Be sure to read through« the the EFI stub kernel article ...? --Charles17 (talk) 07:11, 4 June 2017 (UTC)

Please adjust ESP path

Talk status

This discussion is done.

Please change

--- BEGIN ---

Presuming the ESP is mounted at /boot/efi (as suggested earlier), execute:

root #mkdir -p /boot/efi/efi/boot

root #cp /boot/efi/efi/gentoo/ /boot/efi/efi/boot/

--- END ---

to

--- Begin ---

Presuming the ESP is mounted at /boot (as suggested earlier), execute:

root #mkdir -p /boot/efi/boot

root #cp /boot/efi/gentoo/ /boot/efi/boot/

--- END ---

Reason: Such alternative mountpoint (cit: "mounted at /boot/efi") is in fact not being used int the whole installation guide. The mountpoint for ESP is /boot and nothing else. --Charles17 (talk) 16:57, 30 July 2017 (UTC)

Thanks for adjustments.--Charles17 (talk) 15:32, 9 August 2017 (UTC)
