I would concur with Mr Miata's comment about "slowness" of booting, compared today to my Sid install, which was very quick; TW seems to take its time when waking up from a nights slumber, checking over the to-do list before getting to it, etc.
to make it absolutely clear, *my* boot issues were caused by boot parameters passed via /etc/default/grub resp. /boot/grub2/grub2.cfg. I had mitigations=auto spectre_v2=retpoline retbleed=stuff included in the GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX_DEFAULT initializer. Removing "spectre_v2=retpoline retbleed=stuff" made the boot error go away, and it did not have anything to do with NVME stuff - was just my first thought... Cheers. l8er manfred
