It sounds like you're machine does not support it. I know OpenBSD supports NVME boot as I'm writing to you on an AMD Ryzen machine with B350 motherboard/chipset booting off of a 2TB NVME drive. Most modern laptops these days also boot off of NVME etc. Regards, Jordan

The Framework laptop (https://frame.work) boots fine off an internal NVME, so I suspect other modern laptops do too. Also the SiFive HiFive boots off NVME. So, yes.

Does your bios support booting from nvme? If not, I guess you need another drive to boot from.

nvme boot
Does any of the OpenSBD-supported platforms boot off nvme storage? So far, I have been able to use nvme storage as a disk, but not boot from it; but my HW is far from recent. Jan
