Hi All,
Harald Kanning has released the first version of his NVMe device driver for OS4.1.
Further information: AmigaOS 4: NVMe device driver for SSD -- amiga-news.de
Support thread: NVMe device driver -- amigans.net
I think the AmigaOne users will buy passive PCIeM.2 adapter cards in the near future.
Is it possible to use these passive PCIeM.2 adapter cards with our Linux kernels?
Currently yes and no. The X1000 Linux kernel has no support for NVMe and the X5000 Linux kernel has support via two kernel modules.
If you have copied the kernel modules directory to /lib/modules then you can use SSDs with PCIeM.2 adapter cards with our X5000 Linux kernel but currently it isn't possible to access a root partition during the boot because the uImage itself doesn't have NVMe support.
I will add the NVMe support directly into the kernel images for the X1000 and X5000 next week.
I don't have a PCIeM.2 adapter but it is possible to emulate it with QEMU. I was able to use the QEMU NVM Express Controller with our current X5000 Linux 6.3 kernel in a virtual e5500 QEMU machine:
Cheers,
Christian

Re: NVMe
Hi Christian,
thanks for another excellent news.
I just ordered M.2 NVME + pair of adapters to test NVME with AmigaOS on XE
I see that I must re-build also linux installation ( I have northern island card out of the box ) an test all this new
Thanks for nice support, geennaam & xeno74 !
