I am currently running Mavericks 10.9.1 on my 2008 MB Pro w 8GB of ram. I decided it was tinge to "clone" my boot drive so I download the trial of Carbon Copy Cloner (3.5.4) I formatted an existing 1 TB drive and ran CCC. The clone appears to go smoothly but the result isn't bootable. The external drive does not show if the Option key is held down during boot up nor does the Mac boot from that drive if it is selected in the startup pane.
Additional Data:
The initial clone was to one of the four partitions on the external drive. (Didn't work)
Have also tried cloning to a single partition on the same drive (Didn't work)
Disk Utility says external drive is formatted Mac extended, journaled, with GUID partition type.
External drive is in one bay of a two bay enclosure
Any thoughts/suggestions I am checking their site but haven't found anything on point so far. Also tried an SD clone with no luck.
