Well, it is just an abstract:

If you want to see the real content of an ESP partition ─ let's say
/dev/sda1 ─ run a live session, mount it at
/mnt, and you will understand why can I tell you my real content:
View attachment 7012
View attachment 7013
Then, open a filemanager, go to
/mnt and browse all folders and subfolders within it.
It is exactly the same content you can see from inside an installed distro, at its
/boot/efi mountpoint.
These images (
above) are from January, 16, when I had installed just PCLinuxOS, openSUSE, Fedora and KDE Neon.
I have saved another summary March, 7, with a different parameter, for compare:
Code:
