      Hi, there

      I recently encountered an error message when deploying Windows 10 OS with a specific motherboard and a specific M.2, GigaByte B550M Gaming and Lexar M.2 NM700 256 GB.

      This M.2 is shown in BIOS but FOG reported “can not find disk” after entering deploying stage.IMG_20210309_121642.jpeg

      FOG version: 1.5.9
      Kernel bzImg593RTZ
      init-201114.xz

        @will Its possible that the disk is hiding behind a raid controller. I don’t know the Gigabyte motherboard, but look in the firmware under disk controller mode. If the setting is anything other than ahci mode, try it in ahci mode. There is a known issue between linux, uefi, and the intel raid controller in raid-on mode. You are running a pretty new kernel so it should support that mobo. FOG does have a later kernel 5.10.12 but then you will loose the realtek patch in the kernel you have. I would check to see if there is a disk controller mode first.

        Please help us build the FOG community with everyone involved. It's not just about coding - way more we need people to test things, update documentation and most importantly work on uniting the community of people enjoying and working on FOG!

          @george1421 Hi, George

          I can confirm this M.2 is running at AHCI mode, not behind any RAID controller.

          This M.2 model is working with other motherboards (i.e GigaByte B550 Aorus Elite & Gaming X, ASUS & MSI B550, B550M, X570…).
          GigaByte B550M Gaming motherboard is also working with other M.2 models (i.e WD SN550 1TB, Crucial P1 1TB…).

          But when put these 2 modules together, FOG will report “cannot find disk on system”.

            @will OK this will take a little work on your side.

            1. Setup a new debug capture/deploy (doesn’t matter). Schedule a new deploy task but before you hit the schedule task button tick the debug checkbox.
            2. Now pxe boot the target computer after a few screens of text you will be dropped to the FOS Linux command prompt.
            3. Key in ip a s and collect the ip address of the target computer
            4. Key in passwd and give root a one time password. Make it simple like hello
            5. Use putty or ssh to connect to the target compute using the above information. hint this method will allow you to copy and paste commands into the FOS Linux system.
            6. Now key in the following. I need to know the output of each.
              lsblk
              lspci -k -nn
            7. Using Winscp or scp I need the contents of the syslog file from /var/log directory.

            That should give us an idea what we are dealing with.

              What do you mean by put them together? Like in onboard RAID?

              Is it possible like with NVMe drives, the M.2s are initializing at different times during the boot process and the drives switch places? Like changes from say /dev/nvme0n1 to /dev/nvme1n1?

                  @fog_newb Sorry for the confusion. I mean the Gigabyte B550M Gaming motherboard and Lexar NM700 256GB M.2 SSD for the “2 modules”.

                  The Lexar M.2 is having the same “can not find disk on system” issue with Asus Prime B550M-A motherboard.

                    Have you tried installing plain Windows on the Lexar M.2 in combination with those mainboards yet? Just want to rule out general hardware incompatibility…

                    Web GUI issue? Please check apache error (debian/ubuntu: /var/log/apache2/error.log, centos/fedora/rhel: /var/log/httpd/error_log) and php-fpm log (/var/log/php*-fpm.log)

                        @Will Searching the web I might have found out why it doesn’t work - thanks to the messages.txt and lspci output you posted earlier.

                        There are some special flags needed in the Linux kernel to work around an issue with that particular M.2 drive. There is an interesting discussion on this: https://bugs.mageia.org/show_bug.cgi?id=28417

                        This was reported to the NVMe Linux kernel mailing list as well - so there is hope this is being added at some point: http://lists.infradead.org/pipermail/linux-nvme/2021-February/023121.html

                        To make sure this patch would actually work in your case as well I build a one off kernel binary for you to test: https://fogproject.org/kernels/bzImage-5.10.19-Lexar_M.2

                        Please let us know if it works using that kernel!

                          @sebastian-roth Thanks. I will do the test later.

                          Can you confirm that does this special kernel “bzImage-5.10.19-Lexar_M.2” include NIC driver for Realtek 8125B and Intel I225-V?

                            Looks like Realtek 8125B is supported since Linux kernel 5.9.x and we also added the firmware blobs needed. As well the IGC kernel driver (discussed here) is also included in bzImage-5.10.19-Lexar_M.2. So I would say both should work. Let is know if it doesn’t.

                                  @Will Thanks for the update. Just found that the patch was actually accepted upstream in kernel 5.10.23. As we will update to newer kernel version as we go this will be in the official FOG kernels as well. No extra patching needed.

                                    @sebastian-roth i have the same issue when registering the system having the M.2 SSD. How can i upgrade the kernel 5.10.23. can you please help me to register and deploy the windows 10

                                    FYI - I using the latest version of the fog itself 1.5.9.63 and kernel version is ( 5.10.19)

                                      The devs have not posted that public yet.

                                      FWIW I see the official linux kernels are now at 5.10.28.

                                      Please help us build the FOG community with everyone involved. It's not just about coding - way more we need people to test things, update documentation and most importantly work on uniting the community of people enjoying and working on FOG!

                                        @Dinesh Right, we have not released a newer kernel version yet but you can still download and use the kernel including the patch until we release a new kernel.

                                        Web GUI issue? Please check apache error (debian/ubuntu: /var/log/apache2/error.log, centos/fedora/rhel: /var/log/httpd/error_log) and php-fpm log (/var/log/php*-fpm.log)

                                            @dinesh said in M.2 not recognised during deploying stage:

                                            Can you send me the steps to install the patch(kernels/bzImage-5.10.19-Lexar_M.2)

                                            sudo -i
cd /var/www/fog/service/ipxe/
wget https://fogproject.org/kernels/bzImage-5.10.19-Lexar_M.2
chown www-data:www-data bzImage-5.10.19-Lexar_M.2

                                            If you use a RedHat/CentOS Linux then you need to use apache instead of www-data with the last command above.

                                            Now you have the kernel available and just need to set this as default kernel (FOG Configuration -> FOG Settings -> TFTP Server -> TFTP PXE KERNEL change from bzImage to bzImage-5.10.19-Lexar_M.2)

                                            Note that down so you can switch back to bzImage when the next kernel is officially released and you want to use the default again.

                                            Web GUI issue? Please check apache error (debian/ubuntu: /var/log/apache2/error.log, centos/fedora/rhel: /var/log/httpd/error_log) and php-fpm log (/var/log/php*-fpm.log)
