Thanks guys I will repeat the procedure again later as I need to do some tasks today...

@endsormeans

mate, indeed I am screwed up, obsolete device + obsolete info (dead sites/links) you are getting an idea

so far I found 3-4 different instructions for the cloning:
a/ manually
b/ via install-tools
c/ via console-tools (pbeasy)
d/ that link too:

also the instructions of the console-tools are a bit confusing, in fact
I had the impression that they were instructions for the (older) install-tools -replaced later with console-tools, so I just followed "once" the
clone procedure. BTW looks like I need to just re-install the bootmenu and not to repeat the clone procedure again?

Its just I found this (thx to a friend that is involved with Chinese electronics)

translated via chrome, stellar info about the whole procedure, they only mention to install the bootmenu.

will report soon

cheers
