Hi all,
I’ve been trying to get Volumio to run from a NVMe M2 SSD Raspberry 5, for a long term machine.
I have an 8Gb RPi5, and a 256Gb M2 SSD kit from Raspberry Pi, powered by a 27W PSU also from them. Following the steps here I have the latest bootloader version
2025/02/12 10:51:52
version f788aab60121515fe59c37c899186831e6c19585 (release)
timestamp 1739357512
update-time 1742567582
capabilities 0x0000007f
and my config looks like this
BOOT_UART=1
POWER_OFF_ON_HALT=1
BOOT_ORDER=0xf461
PCIE_PROBE=1
Rebooting and looking at available volumes, I get the SD card I’m running piOS and the Samsung SSD from the Raspberry kit.

Flashing latest Volumio image on a SD card and booting
I don’t see the option “install to disk” on the settings-system. Volumes look as expected

Any suggestions on where to move onto next?
