 Some Big Sur startup volumes don't appear in the Startup Disk Preference 
 Pane
 In the past, the Startup Disk Preference Pane would list all available 
 startup volumes, including volumes cloned by CCC (whether CCC used ASR or 
 its own file copier). Some Big Sur cloned volumes do not appear in the 
 Startup Disk Preference Pane, despite being perfectly bootable.
 
 We have reported this issue to Apple (FB8889774) and we are currently 
 awaiting a response.
 
 Workaround: To boot from the cloned volume, restart your Mac while holding 
 down the Option key, then select the cloned volume in the Startup Manager. 
 When your Mac has completed booting, you can optionally choose to set the 
 startup disk to the current startup volume (i.e. if you want the Mac to 
 always boot from the cloned volume).

Hi Stephen,

I’ve always used CCC, but I can’t remember the reason why I made that decision.
There was a reason... ;-)

Re: SuperDuper not compatible with MacOS Big Sur yet ??

[Stephen Chape]

Hi again.

I might just wait a little longer for the SuperDuper upgrade.
If not forthcoming soon I may move to CCC.

The reason I use Time Machine and also SuperDuper:-
I feel that if my home is burgled and they take the Mac, the Time Machine drive 
will most likely go too.

So on the 1st of each month I take my SSD from my safe and do a SuperDuper 
backup.
I also store important files on Dropbox, but not photos and videos because of 
their size.

One can never back up too much

Re: SuperDuper not compatible with MacOS Big Sur yet ??

[Robin Belford]

Dear All,
My experience is 
- following a CCC update last week I now have a bootable Big Sur clone of my 
computer (as well as the two Time Machine backups). This applies to all the 
machines in our house.
- my SuperDuper installations is patiently waiting for an upgrade.

An interesting and annoying side effect of booting into a Bir Sur clone for 
testing, is when I boot back into the interanal drive all the pay cards in the 
Wallet are disabled. It’s then a non intuitive process to restore them.

 Hi folks.
 
 I am finding this frustrating.
 I have emailed Dave at Shirt Pocket only to be told “just use Time 
 Machine in the meantime”.
 
 Does anyone else in WAMUG use SuperDuper ?
 I use Time Machine, but also use SuperDuper at regular intervals on a 
 Drive locked in my safe.
 I have not been able to do my 1st December SuperDuper “safe” backup.
 And their seems to be not a lot of concern from Shirt Pocket.
 
 It’s like “oh well you will just have to wait”.

Re: SuperDuper not compatible with MacOS Big Sur yet ??

[Ronni Brown]

Hi Stephen,

https://bombich.com/kb/ccc5/macos-big-sur-known-issues
Some Big Sur startup volumes don't appear in the Startup Disk Preference Pane
In the past, the Startup Disk Preference Pane would list all available startup 
volumes, including volumes cloned by CCC (whether CCC used ASR or its own file 
copier). Some Big Sur cloned volumes do not appear in the Startup Disk 
Preference Pane, despite being perfectly bootable.

We have reported this issue to Apple (FB8889774) and we are currently awaiting 
a response.

Workaround: To boot from the cloned volume, restart your Mac while holding down 
the Option key, then select the cloned volume in the Startup Manager. When your 
Mac has completed booting, you can optionally choose to set the startup disk to 
the current startup volume (i.e. if you want the Mac to always boot from the 
cloned volume).



Kind Regards,
Ronni

[Stephen Chape]

Thank you Ronni.

Is your preference SuperDuper or CCC ?
SuperDuper seems to get “top of the list” in reviews.

 Hi folks.
 
 I am finding this frustrating.
 I have emailed Dave at Shirt Pocket only to be told “just use Time Machine 
 in the meantime”.
 
 Does anyone else in WAMUG use SuperDuper ?
 I use Time Machine, but also use SuperDuper at regular intervals on a 
 Drive locked in my safe.
 I have not been able to do my 1st December SuperDuper “safe” backup.
 And their seems to be not a lot of concern from Shirt Pocket.
 
 It’s like “oh well you will just have to wait”.

 Stephen Chape

Thanks for that reply Tim.
Are you using something else now then ?
I had thought about looking at Carbon Copy Clone.

I used to use SuperDuper and was pleased you took the initiative to find out 
from the manufacturer and share the information with us. 

I guess I can use that 1Tb drive for something else now!
