Finally I succeeded in creating an working USB stick.
With etcher I constantly got a corrupted rootfs as well as with dd. Don't know why, strange things happen.
I also repaired the stick with gparted, but it still refused to boot.
Finally I used the Ubuntu inbuilt image writer with success.
I know that this is nothing that might be of any information value, but it was rather frustrating.
But the bottom line is that Raspberry Pi Imager is the fastest way to update EEPROM bootloader.
