- when flashing the image to drive is successful disconect the SSD from computer and reconnect it again

- get the needed files for ssd boot from here:

https://github.com/raspberrypi/firmware/archive/master.zip

- extract the files somewhere on your computer

- go into the boot folder inside the folder you just extracted

- copy over all the files that end in .elf or .dat to the boot volume of your USB drive drive       (replacing the same-named files that already already     exist there)

- now connect the SSD to your Raspberry

- don't forget to connect the pi to your network (for this method i postulate a cable connetion)

- let the pi boot up; this may take some minutes

 

For the next step i will redirect to the offical nextcloudpi guide until my own documentation will be ready
