Booting from NVMe drive (In Argon40 case)

[Tonewheelkev]

Still stuck with this!
Occurs that the *new* NVMe SSD....is straight out of the packet...un-named...and un-formatted.
Could this be why the Pi doesn't seem to be seeing the drive?

Would it help if I posted logs?
Under Music Sources...I can still see The Transcend1TB drive....even though this is not currently attached
