Hi Liam - was not trying to be difficult. Did not realise all this was
needed.

* what OS - UBuntu 22.04
* what version - 22.04
* what PC or motherboard - Gigabyte
* what firmware and version. -Z790 Aorus Elite AX
* whether you've checked that it's current - no as my current 22.04 is
running, I am just dd to another disk, and trying to boot that also.
* what boot method (UEFI or BIOS) UEFI
* what other OSes are present - just the two nvme I mentioned
* how these drives are configured, connected, partitioned, formatted,
mounted - Ext4, nvme, just two partitions, boot and everything else, mounts
as /
* what other drives are present, how they are connected - just these two
drives m.2 nmve
* what you are trying to run as a guest under what, how it is configured

Linux 22.04 is the host, LInux 22.04 is the guest on the second nvme,
virt-manager DISK is /dev/nvme0n1 and I selected the secboot.fd so UEFI
will work, just like I have done with all my vms.

Appreciate your thoughts.

Jerry
