[QUOTE="Rod, post: 1643795, member: 204485"] Also if the internal HD is damaged and you have a bootable backup on say a USB HD then you could just plug it in and startup. The system should pick the working OS by preference and you will then have access to Disk Utility to examine the internal drive. e.g. a OSX bootable installer on a thumb drive will also tell you if its the internal drive at fault.
