I’m a rookie back in the Linux world after 15 years in windows hell, but Proxmox is hard if you’re new to Linux. I didn’t have the patience. I’d install mint on the nvme itself, let it get going, see if anything persists. Best of luck!
Thanks! Yeah, quite the rookie myself, but I wanted to go with Proxmox because it the awesome scripts database the community has created (RIP tteck), as there's one for each system I want to utilize. I suspect the unit I bought has some issues tho. I'm gonna keep tinkering for a few days before I consider returning it, if possible.
