I new to both this forum and the world of Raspberry Pi as a whole, so please excuse any stupid mistakes.
I set up some stuff on my initial configuration on my SD card before I learned that it is recommended to use an SSD instead. So I plugged in one that I had laying around (2TB Seagate SSD) and everything worked fine. I can access it, modify files and partitions. Due to the original power cable I got a strong red LED signal.
I took the following steps to clone the SD card to the SSD in order to use it as boot drive:
1. updated & upgraded everything (from firmware to everything installed)
2. deleted everything, including all partitions from the SSD with Gparted
3. used SD Card Copier to copy everything from the SD to the SSD
4. after successful copying shut down the Pi
5. removed the SD card and turned it on again
But no matter what I do, I only get two fast green LED flashes and no boot.
I don't have the option to use a screen at the moment so I'm connecting via ssh.
I apologize if this is already answered in another thread I couldn't find so far. Thanks a ton in advance for any advice!
