Of course, I realize that if I come back to my computer, and am presented with a login screen (I don't usually log out), it means there was a reboot, and I'd be smart to check "About This Mac" to see who I booted from! Last edited by Dan Lester; 01-02-2018 at 03:07 PM. |

Well, you could potentially replace your desktop image. You could copy a file to your desktop. Something like that. "How this would work" is kind of up to you, Dan. I'm trying to give you a mechanism you can use to achieve your goal...

Of course, if the internal disk dies while I'm logged in, without a power-failure reboot, it will end up being a manual decision to restart and boot to a clone. |
