Description Emir Marincic 2022-07-28 18:19:51 UTC

The -boot USE flag makes the ebuild not copy the build results into /boot. Thus /boot being mounted rw (or mounted at all) should no longer be a requirement in that case.

I'm not sure what to do here yet, the mount-boot eclass doesn't seem to allow for making this optional behind USE.  Maybe I should just remove mount-boot usage and let users handle it themselves, since this tool isn't boot-critical.
