[QUOTE="krs, post: 1932727, member: 67742"] You have been given wrong advice on more that one subject. For one, as Patrick mentioned, you need a Mac that is compatible with High Sierra to run that macOS regardless if you're trying to run a clone on an external drive (or have HS on the internal drive) and telling you that an SSD cannot be partitioned is also wrong. Going back to your original question, a bootable High Sierra USB installer does absolutely nothing for you unless you have a HS compatible Mac to boot from. And since you do have a clone, with macOS High Sierra I assume, you can boot from that but only with a HS compatible Mac. [/QUOTE]
