| Summary | 0000126: bootctl install --path=/boot/etc installs menu entries in /boot/loader/entries instead of /boot/efi/loader/entries | ||||
| Description | bootctl install --path=/boot/etc installs menu entries in /boot/loader/entries instead of /boot/efi/loader/entries Thus, at boot, the loader finds no entries. Furthermore, the vmlinuz* and initramfs* are not copied to /boot/efi, the the loader can't find them. | ||||
| Steps To Reproduce | bootctl install --path=/boot/etc expected result : entries are in/boot/efi/loader/entries/ and vmlinuz* and initrd* are copied to EFI partition actual (bad) result: entries are in /boot/loader/entries/ and initramfs and vmlinuz files are not on EFI system partition. | ||||

Hi. I use dest path /boot/efi and I have this result: # bootctl install --path=/boot/efi Created "/boot/efi/EFI/systemd". Created "/boot/efi/loader". Created "/boot/efi/loader/entries". Copied "/usr/lib/systemd/boot/efi/systemd-bootx64.efi" to "/boot/efi/EFI/systemd/systemd-bootx64.efi". Copied "/usr/lib/systemd/boot/efi/systemd-bootx64.efi" to "/boot/efi/EFI/BOOT/BOOTX64.EFI". Created EFI boot entry "Linux Boot Manager". =============== # ls -lR /boot/efi /boot/efi: total 8 drwx------. 6 root root 4096 210916_06:35:16 EFI drwx------. 3 root root 4096 210916_06:35:16 loader /boot/efi/EFI: total 16 drwx------. 2 root root 4096 210916_06:35:16 BOOT drwx------. 3 root root 4096 210713_08:07:14 almalinux drwx------. 2 root root 4096 210713_08:04:58 centos drwx------. 2 root root 4096 210916_06:35:16 systemd /boot/efi/EFI/BOOT: total 180 -rwx------. 1 root root 87426 210810_17:18:46 BOOTX64.EFI -rwx------. 1 root root 90296 210520_10:43:30 fbx64.efi /boot/efi/EFI/almalinux: total 4896 drwx------. 2 root root 4096 210416_09:15:04 fonts -rwx------. 1 root root 122 210520_10:43:30 BOOTX64.CSV -rwx------. 1 root root 6572 210713_08:07:14 grub.cfg -rwx------. 1 root root 1024 210916_06:03:24 grubenv -rwx------. 1 root root 2286400 210416_09:15:04 grubx64.efi -rwx------. 1 root root 850232 210520_10:43:30 mmx64.efi -rwx------. 1 root root 925424 210520_10:43:30 shimx64.efi -rwx------. 1 root root 922832 210520_10:43:30 shimx64-almalinux.efi /boot/efi/EFI/almalinux/fonts: total 0 /boot/efi/EFI/centos: total 12 -rwx------. 1 root root 6572 210314_12:26:12 grub.cfg -rwx------. 1 root root 1024 210314_12:26:10 grubenv /boot/efi/EFI/systemd: total 88 -rwx------. 1 root root 87426 210810_17:18:46 systemd-bootx64.efi /boot/efi/loader: total 8 drwx------. 2 root root 4096 210916_06:35:16 entries -rwx------. 1 root root 73 210916_06:35:16 loader.conf /boot/efi/loader/entries: total 0 =========== Why you use path '/boot/etc' ? If you expect your loader in /boot/efi may you need to use '/boot/efi' ? I'm not sure about copying vmlinuz* and initrd* to efi partition but I can be wrong. |

/boot/etc is a typo sorry, I use /boot/efi [root@oscarnode72 ~]# bootctl install --path=/boot/efi Copied "/usr/lib/systemd/boot/efi/systemd-bootx64.efi" to "/boot/efi/EFI/systemd/systemd-bootx64.efi".

answer from RHEL: In rhel8 we do not support systemd-boot since grub2 is the preferred bootloader. Unfortunately, we do not plan to spend any time on this. |
