All,

I want to update my iMac  to Mavericks but do it on an external drive so I can 
check existing app compatibility while leaving my existing internal HD and 
system untouched. So, before I do anything dumb, can I just run this by the 
collective SMUG brain...

I've created a clone of my existing HD/system using Carbon Copy Cloner on an 
external USB drive. My plan is to re-start the iMac using the external drive 
and then implement the Mavericks download/update procedure. I'm assuming then 
that Mavericks will update/install the OS on the external drive and my internal 
HD will be completely left alone. Is that correct?

Phil
