eliloconfig error


I recently updated my kernel-packages using slackpkg.
$slackpkg upgrade kernel

Now i cannot login to my graphical desktop using startx.

I came to know that I should reconfigure my boooader.

My /boot/vimlinuz is pointing to the new kernel
But,
I could not update the EFI system partition using eliloconfig.

$eliloconfig
ERROR: No EFI system partition mounted on /boot/efi

But when I see the EFI system partition using cfdisk, it cleary
Says it has been mounted on /boot/efi

???
What's the problem?
What should I do?

However, I have rebooted the system many times after upgrading the kernel.
