Update:
I just downgraded my bios to version that work fine and system booted normally. Really weird... How i can update bios then??
 
Do you have multiple drives on your system?

Make sure your boot sequence (or boot order) is looking to boot off your actual OS drive.

In all honesty, if you don't need the latest BIOS then I can safely say, if it isn't broken then don't fix it.
 
Check to see if it defaulted to IDE mode for your boot drive. If you had it set for ACHI and it defaulted to IDE after the BIOS update, it will not boot.
 
Hi,
Go into bios and disable secure boot.
 
Looks like a rare issue. The kernel loaded, but can't see the drive. This is an indicator that the BIOS is loading from the right drive, but the kernel fails! Should never happen with NVMe!
 
I ran into stability issues with my system in the past after flashing the BIOS on an Asrock X470 Taichi. So I proceeded to rollback the BIOS. First time I tried that, the problem did not go away. Since its messed up, I decided to try to reflash to the same BIOS again, and oddly the issue went away. After hesitating for some time, I decided to try and flash the BIOs to the latest version because I was trying to upgrade to a new CPU, and it worked fine. In short, may be you should try and update the BIOS again.

I would suspect a corrupted BIOS download or you have a rare BIOS chip defect that makes it difficult to write to.

I never ran into an issue like this. Did you re-download the BIOS file?
