On AS Macs you hold down the power key and it will show the options to boot. You get to Safe Mode through that, too. But, in Ventura on AS Macs, the FIRST operation of the boot process is done on the internal storage, even with the Power button being held down. And there is a new security feature called "Owner" that has to be set for each drive from which you boot, and which is attached to the Mac itself by the process of boot from internal, set boot drive, boot from external. If that is not followed, the system won't boot from the external because the owner isn't set. It is part of the new, tighter, security with AS and Ventura. It's not onerous, unless you want to do something like what [USER=67742]@krs[/USER] is attempting to do. He CAN do it, it just not as easy and clearcut as it was before.</blockquote>
