It could possibly be related to

Have you had a look through that along with
systemd-efi-boot-generator(8) and the Generator Specification at the
above link?

I haven't used gpt, but maybe something there will help.


systemd-gpt-auto-generator and systemd-efi-boot-generator are binaries, but I can try to remove them.

"Note that this generator has no effect on non-GPT systems, on systems where the units are explicitly configured (for example, listed in fstab(5)), or where the mount points are non-empty."

If it works as documented, it shouldn't do anything because all the mount points are listed in fstab.

Note too that I blew away Windows completely, so I don't have an EFI System Partition, but I do have an EFI type bios.

I tried removing the files, but that didn't help.

This type of problem reinforces my dislike of systemd. If it were a simple boot script, I could just comment out the offending line and get up and debug that function. Here, the logic if buried deep in compiled code or multiple configuration files with opaque inter-dependencies.

I'm really trying to make this work, but it keeps throwing problems up. I tried Fedora 20 (with LXDE) and it didn't seem to work either. It hangs with no apparent error messages.
