I'm installing ubuntu-server 16.04 LTS in a Xen Guest/DomU.

I pass pre-formatted LVs to the guest, and boot the ubu installer.

I select 'manual partitioning', and see as expected, the drives I've passed through from the host's cfg.

The first drive listed is the expected EFI partition

        Virtual disk 1 (xvda) - 134.2 MB Xen Virtual Block Device
            1.0 MB        FREE SPACE
        #1 133.2MB  B  K  ESP          ESP

when I select/enter partition #1 to attempt to make changes, there's no option to set the mount point for this partion; I see only,

You are editing partition #1 of Virtual disk 1 (vxda). This partition is formatted with the FAT32 file system.

        Partition settings:

                Name:          ESP
                Use as:        EFI System Partition
                Bootable flag: on

                Resize the partition (currently 133.2 MB)
                Erase data on this partition
                Delete the partition
                Done setting up the partition

I'd like to specify the mount point, as I do in other OSs. Specifically, in this case, to

        /boot/efi

( '/boot' is on a separate partition ...)

and, subsequently, have that populated correctly as a mount in /etc/fstab.

How can the EFI partition's mount be specified/set?
