/boot: Kernel, initramfs, etc.
By default, bootable AL2023 images are configured with
/boot being on the root file system.
The /boot path is only relevant
for bootable images, so is unused in AL2023 container images.
This directory is home to files needed for AL2023 to boot such as the Linux kernel and initramfs. The content of this directory should only be manipulated using the tools provided with the OS.
/boot/efi: EFI System Partition
By default, bootable AL2023 images are configured with the EFI System
partition being mounted at /boot/efi. This file system
is managed by the OS and contains code and configuration critical to booting
the system.
This path is not relevant for container images.
