CentOS - Apr 2017 - centos 7 and nvme

Hello all, and hope all is well
Has anyone installed / on an nvme ssd for Cent 7? Would anyone know if that
is supported?
I have installed using Arch Linux, but at the time, mid last year, had to
patch grub to recognize nvme. Arch is obviously running a much more recent
kernel.
Not afraid todo some empirical leg work. Just asking if anyone had tried
already

thanks all for any/all help
regards

I installed RHEL 7.3 (same kernel as CentOS7) and it worked fine except for the
fact that ?efibootmgr? defaults to using /dev/sda, and the disk is called
/dev/nvme0n1, so doing stuff like changing the default boot back to Windows
(dual boot) didn?t work without some tweaking.

Sweet!
Thanks much for the update sir! We are locked on a ver, ver == repo/pkg
time slice, within the Cent7u2 release run, but this could be a reason to
push the pointer forward in our infra
I can live with those headaches
Thanks again
Will report back if we do anything above normal tweaking
