I see a lot a good comments about Snakeoil OS, so I try to install Snakeoil OS in my NUC (Gigabyte GB-BSi5-6200-rev-10). This NUC has Intel I5 6200U, 8GB Ram and Samsung EVO 960 PCIe NVMe M.2 SSD. I'm using Daphile 17.09-x86_64 without any problem. I installed Daphile in the same Samsung SSD very smooth. I created an USB for Snakeoil OS 1.0.0 and boot from this USB without any problem. But when I was in the first step of installing Snakeoil OS (at screen that show Try Ubuntu and Install Ubuntu), the process halted because it couldn't detect my PCIe M.2 SSD. I checked the BIOS and saw that the PCIe SSD was listed in NVMe Disk, not in SATA AHCI device. That's mean this PCIe M.2 SSD bypass SATA controller. It connects via PCI Express controller instead.
Using SATA M.2 SSD could be one way to fix this problem. But the reading & writing speed of PCIe M.2 SSD is faster so much when comparing with SATA M.2 SSD (Up to 6 times for reading and 4 times for writing). That's why I still want to keep this PCIe M.2 SSD. Daphile could see my PCIe M.2 SSD easily, and install Daphile to this PCIe M.2 SSD go smoothly. Could Snakeoil OS offer another way to solve this incompatible with PCIe M.2 SSD problem?
