1 Hi,
2
3 maybe someone here, who owns a PC with a MSI Tomahawk MAX
4 motherboard can answer this question:
5
6 Is it possible to boot Linux from the installed
7 M2 Nvme (or if not from a M2 SATA) SSD? ?
8
9 In the chapter about the BIOS the user manual of
10 the MSI Tomahaswk Max only says
11 "Select Boot Priority", but does not tell about
12 the kind of selectable items.
13
14 Beside speed and cost:
15 Is there any difference between using a M2 SATA SSD
16 or a M2 NVMe SSD?
17
18 Does these drives are working with UEFI boot and
19 Legacy boot when it comes to boot Linux?
20
21 Thanks a lot in advance for any help...!
22 (...sorry...I went out of cryo sleep just
23 a few hours ago... ;)

25 Cheers!
