[QUOTE="Rod, post: 1882032, member: 204485"] Jake, I'm not sure what Mike means by, "an unsupportable configuration". I dont think he was inferring that CCC would abandon the Bootable Clone idea entirely but I could be wrong. Either way I'm sure you agree we all need more than one backup. It looks like SuperDuper has overcome the problem with the beta of macOS 11.4 so there's hope yet. I do agree though, if we can't have a [I]bootable[/I] clone there's not much point. In my case it failed because of some glitch in the boot sequence. I could have restored from a TM backup after erasing and reinstalling macOS from my bootable USB macOS installer but I only know how to do that in theory. I would not want to restore data at initial setup from TM because the classifications are too broad. Drag and drop from the CCC clone is simple and fast. I can be selective and rearrange locations as I go which I think may be difficult with TM but, as I say, I've never tried. [/QUOTE]
