Strange UEFI boot name/folder [SOLVED]

General system
1

Hey, I checked out efibootmgr and I found out that the EFI boot folder for EndeavourOS is named as endeavouros-6944. What 6944 stands for?

[pedro@mope-eos ~]$ efibootmgr
BootCurrent: 0000
Timeout: 1 seconds
BootOrder: 0000,0001
Boot0000* endeavouros-6944
Boot0001* UEFI OS

It is a random number that is appended so you can differentiate when you have multiple EOS installs on the same machine.

But is it added even though I have only one install?

Yes. The installer doesn’t know how many EOS installs you have.
