Utilities > Restore Question
I want to clone my hard drive to a new external hard drive. Someone explained that I can do that with Utilities, but something isn't working for me.
I followed these instructions:
- Select the destination volume from the left side list.
- Click on the Restore tab in the DU main window.
- Check the box labeled Erase destination.
- Select the destination volume from the left side list and drag it to the Destination entry field.
- Select the source volume from the left side list and drag it to the Source entry field.
- Double-check you got it right, then click on the Restore button.
But when I clicked "Restore," I got this message:
"The startup disk can't be used as a restore source. To use this disk as a source, restart your computer using the recovery system, and open Disk Utility again."
What am I doing wrong?
