Edit: to be more specific - how did you transfer the system to nvme ?

Still booting from emmc, but I rsync'd the root filesystem to nvme. So basically, past the initial kernel load, the system switches over to nvme.

You will have to label your partitions and filesystems, and edit /boot/extlinux/extlinux.conf so that in the append section you mount the correct root fs. Also, you will probably need to update /etc/fstab in the nvme so that it mounts the correct root, home, and whatever mount points you want loaded from nvme.

Not 100% nvme boot, but the initial overhead is acceptable. It would be nice to have console display at the bootloader level, but I'd say it is good enough for me Smile
