Full Version: Feature request: Boot Windows EFI from M.2 in PCIE ver.2 slot

I would like to ask if there is a way to create a USB without ISO selection so that it can find and boot the internal M2 drive with EFI Win10 OS on it?

For example in this way:

{
    "control": [
        { "VTOY_MENU_TIMEOUT": "10" },
        { "VTOY_DEFAULT_IMAGE": "F4>Search PCIE M2 and boot EFI Windows" }
    ]
}

Not all BIOS'es support M.2 in PCIE ver.2 slot. A simple upgrade eliminates this problem But, in order for the BIOS to load the OS, you need to insert an additional module into the BIOS. And this is already complicated and can cause problems.
I would think it would be much more convenient to boot from tiny USB which redirect booting to PCIE slot with Windows EFI in it. Such an option would also be convenient in the case when you have to frequently replace other disks in the computer.
