    Bonjour,
    je rencontre actuellement un problème avec un nouveau type d’ordinateur que nous venons d’acquérir.
    En effet, il me semble que le contrôleur de disque nvme n’est pas reconnu.

    Le matériel en question est un Alienware aurora R7
    il est équipé d’un disque nvme ainsi que d’un disque à plateaux.

    J’arrive à capturer le disque à plateaux, cependant le disque nvme n’est pas capturé.
    J’ai booté sur un live cd linux et je ne vois que le disque à plateaux.
    Afin de voir les disques présents sur ma machine j’utilise la commande fdisk -l.

    Hello,
    I’ve actually a problem with the new type of computer that we have just buy.
    Indeed, it seems the disk controler nvme is not recognized.

    The device is an AlienWare Aurora R7.
    This device have a classical hard disk and a nvme disk.

    I can capture the classical hard disk of my machine, however the nvme disk are not captured.
    I have booted on a live cd linux and i can only see the classical hard disk. The nvme disk does not appear.
    To see the hard disk present on my device i use the command fdisk -l.

      @nsmer Ok since you have a dell and I noticed the disk controller is in Raid-On mode, will you look in the bios settings? Look for a setting that says disk controller. There are typically 2 or 3 modes (On Dell Latitude models) One is AHCI and the other is Raid-On. If you see this setting change the disk mode to ahci mode for testing. See if both clonezilla and FOG see the disk then. There is a known problem with the target computer being in uefi mode with Raid-On and linux.

      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!

        Greetings,

        Can you tell me

        1. What version of FOG you are using?
        2. What FOS kernel are you using?
        3. Can you tell me the results of this action?
          a. Schedule a image deployment to this computer. Before you click on the schedule task button select the debug option then schedule the task.
          b. PXE boot the target computer. After a few keyboard Enter key presses you will arrive at a linux command prompt.
          c. At the FOS command prompt key in lsblk. Post the results here. A clear picture taken with a mobile phone is good.
          d. Also on the FOS command prompt key in grep nvme /var/log/messages (I guessed at the log file name, it may be syslog instead of messages). Post the results here.

        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!

          I think th NVME SSD is not seen peharps because of a lack of drivers

            @nsmer Well lets start with the question what is FOS?

            FOS is (Fog Operating System), its the customized linux OS that runs on the target computer. If you schedule a debug capture/deploy then pxe boot the target computer you will get access to the (FOS) linux console on the target computer.

            If I understand correctly you are saying that clonezilla can see the nvme disk? From your listing which drive is the nvme drive?

            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!

              Disk model: WDC WD10EZEX-75W

              Looks like a normal SATA disk to me.

              Disk /dev/sdb: 982 MiB, 1029701632 bytes, 2011136 sectors
              Disk model: MEMUP

              Possibly a USB memory key for booting the live Linux System?!

              Disk /dev/sdc: 1.4 MiB, 1474560 bytes, 2880 sectors
              Disk model: MEMUP

              I have no idea what that might be whatsoever. Looks like a floppy disk telling form the size. But device name “sdc” definitely points to Linux seeing it as a disk block device. By the way, the partition layout on that disk looks totally screwed. Maybe that points us to this disk being not properly recognized by Linux?!?

              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)

                  sda is the traditional HDD no problem with it
                  sdb & sdc are my live usb disk
                  and the nvme ssd is not displayed

                      thank’s a lot you’re right

                      I’ve changed the disk controller mode from the default mode : RAID to mode : AHCI

                      and now the nvme is seen by both FOG & clonezilla.

                        @george1421 Thanks you for your answering, the problem was here. We have change the mode of the disk controler. Way Of Raid-On to AHCI we have succesful to capture the computer.
                        Thank’s for your help you are very nice.

                          @Sebastian I need to look into something I found over the weekend. I installed Linux Mint 19.1 on a test Dell computer that was in uefi mode and had raid-on mode configured. LM 19 installed correctly and ran. There was some strangeness with the network adapter so I reloaded LM in bios mode. But then it hit me, why was LM working in uefi mode…?? I need to find out if the linux kernel developers addressed the Intel Raid controller issue in Raid-On mode.
