I haven't completed read through the tutorial, but UEFITool does exist for Linux. (I had unsuccessfully added NVMe support to an old motherboard previously)

Managed to get MMtools working with wine. But now I am running up against issues with my motherboard and failing the security verification of the modified bios 😅

Stay tuned… 🤓

Yep that was exactly the issue I faced before giving up with NVMe.

I tried it out with my Linux box. There’s a step that requires MMtools that I can’t run with out windows unfortunately 🥲
