Macintosh HD - Data - Mount Point: /System/Volumes/Data - this is the new, empty one. Macintosh HD - Mount Point: / - this has a little Finder icon on the disk. Is there a way for me to somehow tell macOS that the Data drive it should be looking at and associating with is the old one? I'm not sure how else to do this - all of the data is there on the drive, but the OS isn't seeing it as something I can log into as far as the User folder there. I tested moving one of the User folders from the old Data drive to the new one, but that didn't allow me to log into that user. Instead, it created a new Data drive and during setup it offered the old one as a drive I could import data from, but it wanted to duplicate the data to the new Data drive, and I don't have enough disk space to duplicate all the user data. When it was done, I assumed it would associate itself with the pre-existing Data drive, but it didn't. I then installed Catalina onto the Macintosh HD drive.
I was having issues with my Catalina OS, so what I did was format the Macintosh HD drive while leaving the Macintosh HD - Data drive alone. My understanding of the whole Macintosh HD and Macintosh HD - Data in Catalina was that you could delete, restore, modify the OS without affecting your data.
