-    # October 20, 2023) identifies its target EFI system partition (ESP) by
-    # doing 'lsblk' and checking the partition type name. Since within
-    # arch-chroot there's no '/run/udev' but only an empty '/run' tmpfs
-    # 'lsblk' cannot see partition type names and some other pieces of info.
