Re: Bios of Thinkpad T490 doesn't detect NVME

@khaahk - Thank you, it worked! Can you speculate on what might have caused the wrong configuration? Could this have happened during normal bios firmware upgrade? Or just SPI flash degradation? (I assumed the self-healing bios would fix it), or is this evidence that someone may have messed with the bios before?
In any case, thanks for the help a lot!

@SMDFlea - Serial number of this motherboard is PF-1CL3JU . Anyway, for the sake of my knowledge, is the serial number really needed for the T490? My understanding is...

[B]but it works fine with a SATA M.2 SSD[/B].

When connecting an NVME M.2 SSD I get while booting:
"2101: Detection error on HDD0 (Main HDD)"

I can continue and boot a live linux distro from a USB stick, but it doesn't show up in lspci,
and I don't notice any relevant error messages in dmesg.

I have tried two different M.2 NVME SSDs (both working fine on a different machine),
and the behavior is the same.

I am pretty sure that all the...
