[Solved] systemd creates autofs after unmounting /boot

Question

After logging in, i unmount /boot, so that i can unplug the usb drive where it resides, then systemd creates this mount:
# mount | grep /boot
systemd-1 on /boot type autofs (rw,relatime,fd=26,pgrp=1,timeout=300,minproto=5,maxproto=5,direct)
Typing this hangs forever:
ls /boot
/etc/fstab
UUID=2D75-67FC /boot vfat rw,relatime,fmask=0022,dmask=0022,codepage=437,iocharset=iso8859-1,shortname=mixed,errors=remount-ro,nodev,nosuid,noexec 0 2
I don't really know what to make of this. Seems like a bug, given that ls hangs forever instead of showing nothing.

Answer 1

My bad, i really masked the mount unit. Will try again tomorrow.
EDIT:
After masking the automount unit, it looks like this:
* /boot is mounted correctly at startup
* after unmounting /boot manually, no autofs mount shows up anymore
* ls does not hang and immediatly shows nothing, as expected
# systemctl status boot.automount
● boot.automount
Loaded: masked (/dev/null)
Active: inactive (dead)
# mount | grep /boot
(No output)
