rcrsn51 Or would you still have the same problem? If the system BIOS/UEFI is not aware of the nvme drive as a bootable device, you can't force it into using the drive. Yes, without booting from the Duet/Refind USB the NVME would not boot. One of the iterations is to edit the Bios/Setup code and inj...

mikewalsh This HP Pavilion desktop has a single M2 slot (@ 2280) for an nVME drive. I see precious little point in bothering with it, however. On a hardware like yours meant to use a NVME, you would see a noticeable speed up. Even on my old Intel dg31pr motherboard with PCIe v1.1 the NVME Puppy boo...

rcrsn51 When you installed Windows, were there problems getting it onto the nvme drive and not overwriting your main hard drive? First, I would say it would be advisable to either test using a "test" internal drive or disconnect the internal drive. My W10 install was made on a MBR compute...

Comment: This should also work with 32bit Pups

This is the easiest setup.
Install the adapter and NVME drive

Partition and format the NVME:
-boot Puppy
-Menu>System>Gparted
--choose any partition table, partitions and file system(s) that fit your needs

Using NVME drives on old desktop computers. This is a work in progress and lacks polish, but will give users a way to test the concept. This topic is a record from research and test done on both MBR and UEFI computers. It can be applied to systems ranging from Pentium single core to Multicore compu...

mouldy Apparently this is popular to use nvme cards via pcie slot on old desktops to get some speed.

Edit: Your pic you sent via PM shows 'enp4s8" has an IP address. Any idea how that happened?

It's an idiosyncrasy of Bionic32 and is "normal" for the ethernet connection

If you want to see something run FAST, put an NVME module in a USB3 enclosure and use it as an external hard drive.

Got the NVME to USB adapter and tested the speed, on USB 3 port it got about 437MB/s, compared with mouldy's internal NVME at 376.

Seems like "powerwash" only removes all the personal data and Google account info. Don't think it touches the bios.

Interesting video, many of these innovating hacks are done in countries that don't have the abundance of tech that we have in this county. They find ways to refurb and repurpose what's available.
