Are you booting a Dell R730 (or similar) from NVMe? Details please!
My next goal: boot from PCIe slots on a Dell R730. I'm already doing that on a Dell R720, nothing special was required. [1]
I have looked at NVMe booting in the past, but abandoned that idea in favor of PCIe. [2]
This time, I created a bootable image using mfsBSD's zfsinstall [3] but I've been unable to tell the R730 to boot from it.
I have unable to get the NVMe drive to show up in the Boot option for the R730. I have tried both UEFI and BIOS boot modes (see System BIOS Settings | Boot Settings).
Someone had mentioned Dell makes a "4x NVMe carrier that uses a single 16x slot with bifurcation." [4] I think that's Dell part number: 80G5N - those are selling on eBay for $100+ -Before I purchase, I'd like to get verification from someone that they work.
