[QUOTE="MacInWin, post: 1902273, member: 396914"] Sorry about the tutorial, then. Not everybody knows about that. What is totally strange is that there isn't a Volume named "iMac SSD" on the drive. Basically, there is nothing there from which to boot, except Recovery, if it's NOT Update. Also, although the right side is cut off, it says in that final image that "Update" is only taking 160 KB, which is NOT enough to hold the operating system, so it cannot be the boot drive. That leaves the question, "Where did the boot Volume go?" Without that boot Volume, you'll never get it to boot from the SSD. [/QUOTE]
