Re: [systemd-devel] setting up systemd-boot with separate EFI and boot partitions
Thank you Lennart. When I separated the /boot from /boot/efi I formatted /boot partition with ext2. After reading your answer I reformatted it to FAT and... all works.

[systemd-devel] setting up systemd-boot with separate EFI and boot partitions
I have installed arch linux recently, with systemd-boot as boot manager and the EFI partition mounted on /boot. I am wondering how can I mount the EFI partition on /boot/efi, while vmlinuz-linux and initramf remain in /boot? Currently in my /boot/loader/entries/arch.conf I have the following: title Arch Linux linux /vmlinuz-linux initrd /amd-ucode.img initrd /initramfs-linux.img options root=PARTUUID= rw On this setup, I guess amd-ucode.img must remain in /boot/efi, but how can I specify that vmlinuz-linux and initramfs-linux.img are in another partition, if possible at all?
