Viro Registered Sep 7, 2004 #1 I have a laptop drive that is in one of those housings that allow you to access the drive from the USB2 port. After using Carbon Copy cloner on the drive, how do I get my mac to boot from the USB drive?

bobw The Late: SuperMacMod Sep 7, 2004 #2 Did you make the Clone bootable in CCC? Is the drive you're using capable of booting?
bobw The Late: SuperMacMod Sep 7, 2004 #4 See if it's listed in your startup preferencepane. Use the Option key on boot.
