[arch-general] Question about using an efi partition

[ilovecountrymusic483 at gmail.com]

Hi all,

Last night I was reading in the arch wiki about creating an efi partition
for arch Linux and I had a question.  Is this esp partition the same as say
a boot partition that is used in bios?  Meening do I need to have an extra
partition for a boot partition or is this efi partition used as the boot
partition.  I did not see anything regarding this in the wiki so thought I
would ask here.
