follow these instructions for a Clean install and it should install, disconnect the hdd or swap it with ssd and don't have it connected.

just boot from the usb and do an installation, point it at the unformatted SSD you installed and it will install, then after it's one, remove the usb and boot off the ssd

if it is a new ssd, you won't see the upgrade because it's a new install. those instructions are correct
