Copying an OS to a SSD
#8
Just tinkering with something else, if I boot from a mrfixit image, I can see the nvme and mount and use the partitions on it. I was quite surprised by this. I don't know if it contains a driver or if I managed to install the driver somewhere else.

The same thing also happens with Daniel Thompson's Bullseye installed on an SD. What I'd really like is Bullseye booting from the nvme. But I don't want GPT and I don't want umpteen partitions. And I'd like to not have any Manjaro in there. But for now I mount my 700 gb partition on the nvme as /data and it's fairly workable. Maybe I should manually do a debootstrap onto it. I left a 1 GB partition for /boot, I have a 10 GB swap and a 4 GB hibernate. 196 GB to install the rest of Linux into, but leave my 700 GB alone.
