Bug Description
System: Ubuntu 22.04 Desktop.
This failure occurred after substituting systemd-boot for GRUB, which required (a) mounting the ESP to a new directory, /efi; and (b) replacing /boot with a symlink to /efi.
Other instances of this configuration on other partitions but without the symlink failed to update the kernel, with `uname -r` returning a prior version.
