Now we support MSIx for NVMe. Retain the information about using nvme_poll until MSIx is tested on a Bare metal system.

## Hardware support and requirements
Storage-wise Serenity requires a >= 2 GB parallel ATA or SATA disk for IDE/AHCI. Some older SATA chipsets already operate in IDE mode whilst some newer ones will depend upon adjusting a BIOS option to run your SATA controller in IDE (sometimes referred to as Legacy or PATA) mode. SATA AHCI is supported, but may not work on every controller due to bugs in the implementation.
-NVMe drives are supported but it is recommended to use `nvme_poll` boot parameter in newer hardwares as we lack MSI(X) support at the moment. SCSI, SAS and eMMC HBAs are all presently unsupported.

You must be willing to wipe your disk's contents to allow for writing the Serenity image so be sure to back up any important data on your disk first! Serenity uses the GRUB2 bootloader so it should be possible to multiboot it with any other OS that can be booted from GRUB2 post-installation.
