The layout I have is as follows (where /boot/efi is my UEFI system partition): /boot/efi/EFI/arch/vmlinuz-linux.efi /boot/efi/EFI/arch/initramfs-linux.img /boot/efi/EFI/arch/initramfs-linux-fallback.img /boot/efi/EFI/gummiboot/gummiboot.efi /boot/efi/loader/loader.conf /boot/efi/loader/entries/arch.conf /boot/efi/loader/entries/arch-fallback.conf And loader/entries/arch.conf reads as follows: title Arch Linux linux /EFI/arch/vmlinuz-linux.efi initrd /EFI/arch/initramfs-linux.img options root=UUID=<UUID of root fs> rootfstype=ext4 ro quiet To automatically copy newly installed kernels and gummiboot loaders, have a look at these links: https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/UEFI_Bootloaders#Systemd https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/Gummiboot#Automatic_copy_on_update HTH!
