 Replying to [comment:16 pierre]:
 > I can tell you from previous experience that efivarfs needs to be
 mounted for efibootmgr to be able to modify boot variables. But yes,
 systemd mounts it automagically at boot. SysV certainly doesn't. For
 openrc, I cannot tell, but it needs specific code in the `init` binary.
 Note that when running grub-install without --removable in chroot, as said
 by Xi, efivarfs '''has to''' be mounted.

 For OpenRC, efivarfs is apparently mounted via `/etc/init.d/sysfs`, part
 of the boot runlevel, which is nice to know but not helpful for mainline
 LFS at the moment.

 So far, I think the branch covers every major piece of info and addressed
 most if not everything here. I think this branch is ready for review.
