Describe the bug

Update BIOS from 3.04 to 3.06. Successful.
Then a completely new installation of Linux Mint 22.2. First started LiveCD. Went well. Performed the installation from LiveCD. Also went well. Restarted after installation from LiveCD, also went well.
Then, the first restart displays a screen with the Framework logo, which remains "stuck". Restarting in LinuxMint maintenance mode displays a message that NVME is timing out.
Tried installation of Windows11: went fine.
Tried installation of Ubuntu 24, went fine.
Tried other NVME SSD: Samsung NVME 1TB, Linux Mint 22.2, starting the system gives time outs.

Temporary solution: I bypassed booting from NVME, instead, used the USB external FWdisk. System starts up fine.

So it must be something with the combination FW3.06, NVME and Linux Mint which gave me the time outs. There were no problems like this with BIOS 3.04. Something to do with the battery extender?

Expected behavior

Normal start.

Operating System (please complete the following information):

  • OS/Distribution: Linux Mint
  • Version: 22.2
  • Linux Kernel Version: 6.14
