+ [Impact]
+ Users with NVMe disks.
+ 
+ [Test case]
+ - Install system with NVMe disks; expect to pick the boot device.
+ Install should complete succesfully.
+ 
+ [Regression Potential]
+ None, this only adds matching for NVMe devices; any such devices will now be matched based on the partition numbers rather than risking to match a character device for NVMe formatting. This does not match regular block devices and partitions.

  On Ubuntu 16.04, when installing Ubuntu to an nvme drive, Ubiquity fails
  to install grub.  In ubiquity/misc.py the function default_grub targets
  /dev/nvme0 instead of /dev/nvme0n1, which is the real name of the
  device.
  
  For single drive scenarios, this can be fixed by filtering out nvme devices from the regex line:
  old:
  target = re.sub(r'(/dev/(cciss|ida)/c[0-9]d[0-9]|/dev/[a-z]+).*',
                              r'\1', target)
  fixed:
  target = re.sub(r'(/dev/(cciss|ida)/c[0-9]d[0-9]|/dev/(?!nvme)[a-z]+).*',
                              r'\1', target)
