Troubleshooting • Re: Cloned sdcard to SSD - doesn't work

Strong enough PSU for the Pi?

Try again with the SD Card Copier that comes with RPiOS or with the tools generously provided by forum user ronr (hint: seach usb made easy).

You say you changed cmdline.txt. Di you also update /etc/fstab?

For more you'll need to tell us more about what you're seeing when " it won't boot from SSD.". There are many possible causes and that's not a very useful description of what's happenning.

PSU is strong enough, 4A, 20W.
The same USB SSD worked on 3A, 15W RPI.

I updated fstab too, but still wouldn't boot.
I can't say what I'm seeing during boot because I'm ssh-ing into it.

Still, it won't boot, unless it's a fresh install. What am I missing and doing wrong here?

Try migrating the SD card to the SSD with usb-boot.

Usb-boot tool solved the problem, thank you.
I noticed that PARTUUID changed when it cloned the sdcard to SSD.
The tool basically did the same what I did, changed PARTUUID in cmdline.txt and in fstab, but it obviously did something else that made it actually work. Wonder what.

Thanks all Image may be NSFW.
Clik here to view.
