DragonFly 4.6 release candidate 2 has been tagged. You can pull it directly from the master site in img or iso form (check your local mirror instead if possible), or shift to the new tag.
“Where is RC1?” you may ask? I tagged the first release candidate some days ago, and this bug was immediately found right after. It was easier to go right to RC2 once a fix was found.
This candidate will probably lead directly to a release version, so if you want to run the release version exactly, wait a few days.
Will the 4.6 live cd have the possibility to recognize NVMe disks?
I think so – the recent driver work by Matt is in there. I say that without having tried it myself…
You can check right now by downloading one of the current snapshot images:
http://mirror-master.dragonflybsd.org/snapshots/x86_64/
Burning it, and seeing what happens.
Unfortunately, for me, using the 4.6 RC2 iso to a fresh install; no NVMe entries in /devs…
You may need to load the module or put it in your kernel config:

If you’re booting from an image, loading the module using kldload should be enough.
used: nvme_load=”YES” in loader.conf and voilà!
Thank you for your help!
