Core / Scale on same hardware, different boot and pool disks

It took me ages to get back to this. I tried burning the latest TrueNAS scale to a blank USB and then installing to two SSDs. Install said it worked but I got this message when booting from the new SSDs …

failed to import boot-pool

I was going to ask what is going on but thought … google it first. Seems this is a thing and the solution is to reformat your SSDs. Connected to a windows 10, reformat both of them, reinstall …

and …

and … finally got to see the TrueNAS scale menu with only 9 options instead of the number of options I am use to (11).

Right - finally have TrueNAS Scale 24.10.0 and TrueNAS Core 13.6 something on my devl machine. Time to see what I can port over.
