I am revealing how little I know about this stuff, but I had the idea that the bootable, external drive could start the machine if its native OS was not working right. Is that wrong?
So, if I am understanding this correctly, the computer has to be able to start on its own first, with its own operating system, so you could make this choice, is that correct?
