How can I make a bootable backup? If a volume is copied directly to another volume, and care is taken to select the volumes themselves and not subfolders within them, it will automatically make the backup bootable. Then, before starting up, the computer will present you with a screen showing you the available volumes to boot from.
With luck the newly created volume can then be selected and booted from. Most of the time the above steps will work for most people. This is because some types of external disks, USB sticks, enclosures, or in some cases even cables, do not support USB booting.
If your volume fails to boot try switching the USB cable and trying again if you have another one. Then after that perhaps try switching the enclosure if possible. Failing all of the above, try purchasing a reputable drive enclosure and cable, which is the fail-safe option.
