Can’t start up from external < bravomailer >

Mac mini, 2024, 16gb memory, 500gb drive, latest Tahoe

My internal hard drive was slow. First Aid couldn’t help. So I cloned to external - a Micron 1tb. The external worked fine.

Then I erased the internal to freshen it from external.

Now the internal is empty and I cannot boot from it of course. But I can’t boot from the external either.

I hold the power button on restart and get the Choose Startup Disk window but after a half dozen attempts, nothing.

Any ideas?
