ZJS
57 <para><filename>systemd-efi-boot-generator</filename> is a
58 generator that automatically creates mount and automount units for
59 the EFI System Partition (ESP), mounting it to
60 <filename>/boot</filename>. Note that this generator will execute
61 no operation on non-EFI systems, on systems where the boot loader
62 does not communicate the used ESP to the OS, on systems where
63 <filename>/boot</filename> is an explicitly configured mount (for
64 example, listed in
65 <citerefentry><refentrytitle>fstab</refentrytitle><manvolnum>5</manvolnum></citerefentry>)
66 or where the <filename>/boot</filename> mount point is non-empty.
67 Since this generator creates an automount unit, the mount will
68 only be activated on-demand, when accessed.</para>
