I booted gparted's ISO to resize my HDD's Debian's drive to 100 GB instead of 320 
GB. And then, I booted Debian bullseye v11.3's netinstaller to do a basic 
installation with its single partition with the same defaults like I did in HDD. I 
didn't install its GUI. Just the basic stuff for quick and easy setups.

I tested both Debian installations, and they booted fine. I booted Clonezilla's ISO 
and copied HDD's Debian to SSD successfully and quickly. I rebooted to SSD, but it 
still booted to HDD. What happened and how to fix it? :(

Dang computer problems! Quiet cooler week with the recent very light rain. It's like winter again! Celtics have better get burned by Miami Heat at the end of the eastern conference!
