Hi.

I wrote a disk file image and tried to boot from this. The exact sequence is:
Bkup to an image disk of an external drive
mounted image disk of the external drive
selected the external startup disk from the preferences
reboot

Unfortunately the system boots from the internal drive.

What am I supposed to do?

Thanks again.

Regards.
