Please add a link, tell what you are trying to follow. It's hard to guess. |

Could not find that string you menitoned. But herer is one like: | Code: | | bootctl --path=/boot install |
See the difference? |

I am having the same issue. | Quote: | | Failed to open "/usr/lib/systemd/boot/efi": No such file or directory |
There's no mention of systemd-boot in the wiki nor any other mention on how to get this working on gentoo. Is no one using systemd-boot ? |

| Hi guys, now I know how to deal with this issue. You should enable "gnu-efi" USE flag for systemd. Then you can have needed files in /usr/lib/systemd/boot/. |

Thank you for posting the solution, I was having the same issue and placing
| Code: | | sys-apps/systemd gnuefi |
in the package.use file resolved it. Note that the USE flag is gnuefi not gnu-efi.
This is not all. In order for the command
to succeed, some important files and directories should be created. This is accomplished by installing
| Code: | | emerge -a sys-libs/efivar |
