## Custom EFI System Partition (ESP)
Since version 1.1.0 fwupd will autodetect the ESP when it is mounted on
`/boot/efi`, `/boot`, or `/efi`. A custom EFI system partition location can be

Since version 1.1.0 fwupd will autodetect the ESP if it is mounted on
`/boot/efi`, `/boot`, or `/efi`, and UDisks is available on the system. In
other cases the mount point of the ESP needs to be manually specified using the
option *OverrideESPMountPoint* in `/etc/fwupd/uefi_capsule.conf`.
Setting an invalid directory will disable the fwupd plugin.
