[Buildroot] UEFI and systemD

[lpdev at cordier.org]

Hi everybody,

I finally succeed to compile and start a linux kernel using EFI. My kernel is booting, but it seems that systemd is not starting. (I only get output from the kernel, and when I plugin/plugoff devices). I have no tty for interacting with the operating system.

After digging in systemd.mk, I noticed that in SYSTEMD_CONF_OPTS, 2 options are disabled:

    -Defi=false \
    -Dgnu-efi=false \

Is it normal? Any clue to how to make systemd boot while using Uefi?

Following is my defconfig. Thank you very much for your time.
