[PLUG] Partitioning nvme "drive"

[Eric Lucas via plug <plug@lists.phillylinux.org>]

I have a new 500 GB nvme drive and I am installing Kubuntu 22.04.

When it comes to partitioning I want a boot partition and a root partition. 

The partition program leaves a 1MB "free space" at the beginning so it looks like:

- nvme0n1

-- free space   1MB

-- nvme0n1p1  ext4  /boot  biosgrub 199 MB

-- nvme0n1p2  ext4 /          ext4 499906 MB

Why the fixed 1 MB free space up front?

Will this be a problem with booting? 

Thanks,

Eric
