Troubleshooting • Re: Pi5 stuck on boot wanting to boot from second ntfs usb hdd instead of the first usb OS ssd

I’m running Raspbian latest version on my pi5 from an external usb3 ssd.

I also have an esternal usb3 powered HDD attached used for storing media.

With both usb3 disks attached, the Pi is stuck on boot, trying to boot from the ntfs formatted HDD instead of the SSD.
Swapping the order of the usb cables in the usb3 ports of the Pi5 seems to solve this.

Is there a more reliable way to force the system to ONLY boot from the ssd usb device?
