Hey guys, I have an 10.8.1 installation working perfectly fine updated from 10.7.4. I've picked up an SSD drive and I just cannot wrap my head around the issue of not being able to boot from my cloned partition. Long time member here so i've already mostly tried all different variations of the common recommendations.


Quickly for reference,

-10.8.1 installed and configured properly with chameleon, working perfect.
-Downloaded superduper, cloned partition to SSD drive.
-Installed chameleon on SSD drive, verified disk and permissions.
-Restart system, no bootable device found on SSD.
-Booted back into original install, completely removed efi partition on SSD..created a new one, installed boot files manually in terminal, same issue upon reboot.

*Bootloader on working drive takes a bit to come up with the clone drive connected. Getting ebios sector read errors and the clone partition is not detected by the original bootloader.
*After this issue upon booting up disk utility and verifying the SSD disk I get efi partition errors that it "repairs" but does not fix the issue.

Thanks in advance for any help
