lsblkbeforedd. The order of /sdX might change from boot to boot. Only /nvme doesn't change.Why is this?
It's a design thing. BIOS can know NVMe disks' location because they're directly mounted to PCIe. SATA isn't like this. Similar logic with the RAM slots.
NVMe is just as hot swappable as SATA. It's done like that because NVMe was invented after the realization that this stuff needs to be predictable.
First thing I do after loading the liveusb is write the "mylsblk" which does the much more sane thing of:
lsblk -o NAME,LABEL,PARTLABEL,UUID,SIZE,MOUNTPOINTS
