Well, I installed 7.0 (*not* 7.1) on my desktop (old Haswell mobo) - it rendered computer unstartable (not unbootable). Mobo hung so hard it couldn't even enter the BIOS. I think I was lucky I didn't install it on my PCIe-card NVMe... It would be shitty to need it hot-plugged to a working computer to fix.
If it is of any use to anyone, I have a Haswell Gigabyte board that locks up if I use OpenBSD to set up the drive with GPT. It just shows a black screen and won't even show the vendor logo, much less let me into the BIOS or OS.
This happens with both an on-board mSATA and with a standard SATA HDD or SSD. As soon as I unplug the drive, everything is fine, and I have to recreate the partition table in another system.
I always figured it was a problem with the MB firmware, so I never filed a bug.
