An entry in the fstab is created for the efiboot0 label (first one) only. The otherones aren't even mounted. This isn't mentioned not visible why the rest is not mounted as /boot/efiN. Updating boot code or installing EFI applications on all ESPs requires mount/umount through all disks. For consistency reasons one would expect fstab would contain /boot/efi0, /boot/efi1, and so forth for every single disk beating part of zroot. Maybe this also applies to UFS, but I ha= ve never used UFS outside of HW RAID where only one bootable UFS drive exists. Documentation and manpages: There several ones like upgrading notes, likely handbook and loader/uefi-related manpages which only mention /boot/efi and nothing else, no mention of other possible ESPs in the system. Upgrade/modification instructions apply to efiboot0/gptboot0 thus /boot/efi= (0) only. Here I would expect that docs and manpages would consistently mention that boot code needs to be updated/installed on ALL affected ESPs or freebsd-boot partitions which can be used for booting the system. --=20 You are receiving this mail because: You are the assignee for the bug.=
