My main SSD is not booting, it hangs on the Apple logo, using the Clover menu at boot selecting the HDD Clone and it boots OK, what's the best way to diagnose the issue and recover the system back to the SSD or possibly a new SSD if required please?
I have Carbon Copy Cloner and was thinking to use Disk Utility on the SSD, erase the Sierra partition and then copy from the Clone HDD over to my SSD using CCC and see it it boots? I don't want to mess up my EFI though as machine still in use. I've also mounted the EFI off of the main SSD and taken a copy of it. The EFI mount from the clone HDD looks pretty empty.
I've also got Time Machine running.
This is a system I've been running OK for a good few years from the SSD. Think I'm in a position to save the system but I don't want to mess it up at the first step. Thanks
