I tried to chroot in the installation using the latest GentooMinimalCD
(it does run the linux-6.1.53-gentoo-r1 kernel) but I am unable to
mount the root directory.

-> lsblk
[snip]
nvme0n1          259:0      0  9453.9G    0  disk

-> swapon /dev/nvme0n1p3
-> mount /dev/nvme0n1p4 /mnt/gentoo
mout: /mnt/gentoo: can't read superblock on /dev/nvme0n1p4.
         dmesg(1) may have more information after failed mount system call.

-> dmesg

[snip]
nvme nvme0: controller is down; will reset: ....
nvme nvme0: Does your device have a faulty power saving mode enabled?
[snip]
EXT4-fs (nvme0n1p4): unable to read superblock

I am still able to boot with the old kernel 6-1-41-gentoo.
Does this mean I may have a hardware problem with the NVMe drive?

Thanks for inputs.
