Hello everyone, I'm facing a weird problem. I've recently rented a PC - ASUS
G21CX, which comes with 2 disks:
- NVME SSD Intel 660p 512Gi
- SATA HDD Toshiba 1Ti
Obviously it arrived with Windows 10 installed and want to install Fedora on it, however
Fedora Live image does not recognize NVME drive, like it's not even there. HDD is
available as /dev/sda as expected.
dmesg and journalctl does not show any errors except some usb-related failures, but I
don't think it's related in any way.
Windows and BIOS both recognize the disk. I've disabled the Secure Boot feature but
that had no effect.
I've tried both Workstation image and KDE image (which I intent to use). I was hoping
to see something else on other distros, but no other live image managed to boot on this
machine. I've tried Ubunut 20.04 LTS, Manjaro KDE, PopOS with nVidia drivers all are
getting stuck at boot.
The rest of the hardware:
- Motherboard Chipset: Intel Z390 (Cannon Lake-H)
- Core i7-9700K
- ASUS RTX 2070
BIOS settings are almost as limited as a laptop, but nothing unusual from what I can
tell.
Do you have any pointers or ideas what could it be and how to fix it?
