Very like this issue, I'm getting:

Session start failed rc = 136
Unable to start Unauthenticated session
EndSession Failed
Unable to read MSID password
Initial setup failed - unable to take ownership

After running:
sedutil --initialsetup /dev/nvme0

I get the same when running from the the 64bit rescue image and from the OS (Arch Linux).
Sedutil version 1.20

  • Has anyone manage to enable OPAL on these Intel NVMEs?

Attaching full output of initialsetup, scan and query:
sedutil_scan_vvvvv.txt
sedutil_query_vvvvv.txt
sedutil_initialsetup.txt

On the disk should be label PSID with a long number.

./sedutil-cli --PSIDrevert "ThePSIDPrintedOnTheLabel" /dev/nvm0

To elaborate further:

ODM/OEMs may activate OPAL in manufacturing. This prevents anyone without physical possesion of the device to claim the disk under their management. First thing to gain control of the disk is --PSIDrevert to reset the disk to something like "unmanaged".

Note: --PSIDrevert MAY delete the content of the disk or render it unreadable so ALL DATA MAY BE LOST.

./sedutil-cli --PSIDrevert "ThePSIDPrintedOnTheLabel" /dev/nvm0

worked without even nuking my data. Previously I had all sorts of issues being unable to run any sedutil commands

@ChriMarMe hello, any way to get the status before psid revert?

we have tried the query between normal pc and not authorized pc, but there's no difference of the output.
