With this mobo, I'm having a great deal of trouble getting the m.2 to work. The m.2 is the ocz RD400 at 512Gb.
Since the mobo can't boot from that m.2 drive, I'm using debian 9 (stretch) (or at least trying to) to be able to use it until the new x370 mobo gets here.
The m.2 drive is in the pcie black slot furthest from the CPU and the nvidia 960 video card is in the slot closest to the cpu. Are these shared lanes or something?
The system works fine in Debian 8 where the m.2 drive is not even recognized but I get boot-time crashes (after hours and hours of figuring out how to boot from a USB flash drive while the OS resides on the m.2 (all hard drives removed for this testing.))
So, Debian 8 works but no m.2
Debian 9, m.2 is seen during install but crashes on boot.
So I'm wondering if maybe it has to do with which pcie slot the m.2 and nvidia 960 are in. But maybe I'm way off base here.
Any ideas, folks? Sure would like to have this working Windows is not even in the picture, btw.
