Boot from image
Hi
I created an image of my MBP-HD using default options. My SuperDuper.sparseimage doesn't appear when I press Alt on Startup. It lies on a External USB2 Drive, among other Files, in the root directory. Is there anything I need to do first? Thanks a lot for help! m. |
Sparse images are not directly bootable, so that makes sense. See the User's Guide...
|
Hmm, it said "make image bootable" in the process of backing up though. can you give me a hint?
|
Yes, the files are configured for startup. But you can't start up from it because it's not a real drive.
|
Hmm, that means, I need to dedicate a drive to super duper so I can boot from it? Or should I have chosen sparsebundle and all would be fine?
|
No, you can partition the drive into a backup volume and then one (or more) for other uses.
|
OK, now I got it. Thanks!
