Closed: Systemd-boot Device Error

I'm trying to use systemd-boot to get up and running on a new arch server but I'm running into an error on boot. I have learned a ton about the boot Process and the UEFI BOIS witch is why I use Arch in the first place but I can't find the answer for this any where It does not seem to be the usual errors.

Error loading \vmlinuz-linux: Device Error
Failed to execute Arch Linux (\vmlinuz-linux): Device Error

I will try to give as much information as possible

Output from commands

fdisk -l

/dev/sdb1 is the EFI partition
Format: FAT32
Mounted: /boot

/dev/sdb2 is the root partition
Format: EXT4
Mounted: /

/dev/sda
is a 8TB disk that I will be using later

tree /boot

The efi device is readable in the UEFI shell under FS2:

Re: Closed: Systemd-boot Device Error

Is Secure Boot disabled?

If so then please post the output of

efibootmgr -v

That can be run from the live ISO.
