Should be UEFI if I remember correctly
Usually itâs a good idea to turn off CSM support so the live ISO doesnât boot in Bios mode and install as MBR instead of UEFI.
Edit: Not sure why itâs not recognizing the drive. What is the brand and type of drive you have for nvme m.2?
Does it not see the drive also booting on the live ISO?
Are you booting on grub or systemd-boot?
Maybe try the following kernel parameter either in the default grub command line and run the update grub command or in the kernel command line for systemd-boot and then run command to reinstall kernels.
If you need help with that i can explain depending on whether you use grub or systemd-boot.
nvme_core.default_ps_max_latency_us=0
Edit:
If using grub then in
/etc/default/grub
add to the command line
nvme_core.default_ps_max_latency_us=0
save and then run grub update command
sudo grub-mkconfig -o /boot/grub/grub.cfg
If using systemd-boot then in
/etc/kernel/cmdline
add
nvme_core.default_ps_max_latency_us=0
save and run
sudo reinstall-kernels
Edit: Of course you would reboot afterwards!
If it is nvme then it is a pci device, so look at the bios pci setting. If NVME then slot option rom should be enabled too. If sata around the data settings which I guess u have already done.
You could look at the pci setup as seen after boot:
sudo -s
lspci
lspci -t
lspci -nnvv | grep -E '^[0-9a-f]|Lnk(Cap|Sta):'
Last will show pcie capability vs allocations & speed, useful for comparing against a block diagram for a similar Celeron if you can find it. If all the pcie lanes for the cpu are used then nvme unlikely, unless South bridge connected, assuming there is a south bridge, but probably. Intel ark website might give you clues about cpu capability.
You could be unlucky and the ship this as a cheaper version with bios options disabled, but doesnât make much sense it they have hardware slot anyway.
If laptop is 2014 ish then SATA on a Celeron is maybe more likely?
Just looked at the kernel logs. 60GB mmc boot device it seems. I canât see an SATA controller being initialized, lspci should show if there, and can use -k to see driver.
What is the keying and size of the slot?
Have you tried booting fallback initrd as it includes more drivers that might be needed for new hardware? Journalctl output would be good then too.
@NoChill
Try the suggested kernel parameter that i have given you above to see if the drive gets recognized on boot after.
nvme_core.default_ps_max_latency_us=0
LiveISO did not help, neither did fallback kernel
Adding that line to systemmd did not seem to work either.

Hopefully you did it correctly?
I pasted it in the same way the other entries were formated
Have you tried this drive in another system? Is the disk initialized? Or is it still in RAW format?
The current sata m.2 has not been initialized, the previous nvme m.2 I tried was initialized
Donât have a system currently to do that with
Have you tried some other settings in the Bios? Such as turning of TPM and removing the security keys for secure boot and make sure itâs disabled.
No luck
Although this BIOS has very unintuitive secure boot options compared to most
What are the brands of these drives?
The Sata M.2 I am using now is a cheap KngFast
Well i have no ideas left. Maybe Windows?
Donât even think this is a Linux issue, although I could try the Windows installer
Have you tried any other linux distros to see if the drives are recognized.
