I didn't know anything about Linux until 2 weeks ago and I don't really want to.
But!
I bough an NVME SSD Seagate 510 that I can't make use of it because only one Linux boot disk sees the drive.
I really want to install Windows on it, first it said MBR partition (was true) but now that I created a GPT part. it says it can't work with it.
Back to Linux.
Nothing else I can put my hand on will see it, but this 2016 version of Parted Magic with Linux 4.6.3
With in that if I go to command line I was able to see, delete the MBR part. create a GPT part. format it.
parted -l says "type Microsoft Basic data" I don't know what that means. also saw msftdata somewhere.
Along the way I think I also did a dd wiping and the Nwipe 0.17 (single pass) I also did and it sees the new GPT part as well.
But.
Even the 2017 version of bootable Parted Magic disk will not see the drive.
Version: GNU bash, version 4.3.46 (i586-slcakware-linux-gnu)
So most of this I don't understand, but mainly that after I wiped with nwipe, what else can I do for other things to see it ?!
On the computer.
It's a Dell 3440 SFF with RAID or AHCI (only see drive in AHCI)
Safe or non safe mode seem to make no difference. (I think it has to be in safe when installing windows, but before that, I would like to see the drive)
I also don't have a monitor so no GUI as linux just don't load HDMI (tv) drivers ?!
For windows info I am relying on the win10 installation (and fdisk) and Minitool bootable. Also have Reflect bootable.
Also made a windows SATA SSD and put this as a second drive but no joy, including Seagate software.
I follow instructions but can't find a file in linux file system as I have tried to run a seagate linux tool because I can't find the filed I copied to the USB, etc.
Thanks
