unable to boot genericx86-64 poky-altcfg using custom fsuuid ESP on hardware(NUC), but wic image is able to boot on qemu.
 
local.conf:
DISTRO = "poky-altcfg"
WKS_file = "custom.wks"
MACHINE = "genericx86-64"

custom.wks :
part /boot --source bootimg-efi --fsuuid 1a2b3c4d --sourceparams="loader=systemd-boot" --ondisk sda --label msdos --active --align 1024 --use-uuid

able to boot after changing the fsuuid to 0x1A2B3C4D 

amendment: boot issue can reproduce in qemu too

Comment 2 Chee Yang 2021-01-06 09:13:17 UTC

so it is due to fstab not updated properly on certain fsuuid.  This commit should have fixed it https://git.yoctoproject.org/cgit/cgit.cgi/poky/commit/?id=3fa6a47aeb24dacf3f3b5cb4d7bad763619baf54
