Symptoms
When installing CloudLinud, you encounter the following error.
WARNING! Your /etc/fstab configuration is not explicit about device mounting on boot/efi.
This is not a CL software issue but this potentially can cause problems with booting the CL kernel.
It is strongly recommended to contact your hosting provider before proceeding.
For details please read this article: https://cloudlinux.zendesk.com/hc/en-us/articles/360021620699
If you're certain that your configuration is correct, please run this script again, adding this flag: --skip-boot-check
