OK, I did a "Repair" on the USB backup disk with Disk Utility. No problems reported.
Then I selected the backup volume in that disk as the "Startup Disk" in System Preferences on my Mac. Then I rebooted.
Yes! It works. I'm booted on the clone and everything looks, well, like the original.
So what it comes down to is just that option-Restart doesn't want to show me that USB backup volume. Now, I need that to work, of course, because if my laptop disk craters, I need to be able to do option-Restart to boot on the clone. So what's going on? Why can't I do that?
