From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).
Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word "Linux" in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.

No, this has nothing to do with your motherboard. Once you reach the boot menu you'll be able to pick your OS and alternatively
systemd-storagetm
. If you chose the the latter then your disks will be available to other machines over NVME-TCP. Just like Apple.So when it's booted it will just advertise the storage to the LAN over nvme-tcp protocol?
Not "booted", you won't be booting your full OS. It's just an option on the boot menu that launches systemd and a small program that does the magic and nothing else.
But is it running at the same time as a an OS or is it just a device without an OS running, sharing storage?
