I finally solved it:

after the ~10th attempt I could flash Tow-Boot.
After dd the spi.installer.img to a 32GB SD card, I used GParted to rename the partitions to test and test1, also resized the 2nd partition so there is no empty space left on the card.


Not sure if it just takes a lot of attempts or if the things really helped.
