Hi, Seems on my system, I have to load the module "efivars" before I can mount my efivarfs (mount -t efivarfs efivarfs /sys/firmware/efi/efivars)
Now, systemd should do this magically but for some reason it doesn't do that. If I do not have the efivars module loaded the above mount command fails. No automatic modprobe happens - I suspect this is why systemd fails to mount it. Any thoughts on why it might not be automatically loaded by the kernel when the mount is attempted? Is it simply because it's missing some kind of module alias on the name efivarfs? I guess it would work if it were baked into the kernel itself, but it _should_ really work with a module too...
