Bug Description
This is a report from an Intel internal user doing an evaluation of StarlingX:
"With certain modification in the installation command of it, we were able to install.
Modification: Changed the boot_device and rootfs_device in the command from sda to nvme0n1 as my Intel test device has nvme0n1 drive (attached image: stxissue_command ) because it were not booting using default command. It would be better if somewhere in the installation guide it is written to check about boot_device and rootfs_device and edit command."
We should update our documentation to describe this more fully, at the least adding text that if you have a spinning disk drive, your device will be named sdaXX by the OS, and if you are installing on SSD-based storage it will be named nvmeXX.

The docs have been changed enough that this issue is no longer valid/needed.
