Re: Macbook Pro backup before repair
Ha. This time I got it to format as APFS and I added another volume to the container.
Now, sadly, I have to do the clone again. Not really sure why I am obsessing over this. : )

Re: Macbook Pro backup before repair
I learned that computers are possessed. I did it the same. Some little blurb flashed on the screen about "MacOS Extended [journaled]" and then it formatted APFS, with container. Now, in Disk Utility, there's a greyed out "ghost disk" right under the top level [top level is "LaCie Rugged USB-C Media" / "USB External Physical Disk • GUID Partition Map"]. The ghost disk says "lacie 3 - clone disk and so forth" / "USB External APFS Physical Store". And then there is the container housing the volumes.

Re: Macbook Pro backup before repair
This time it did not prompt for the "hidden disk". We'll see if it shows up.

Re: Macbook Pro backup before repair
The applications are not missing when booting from the clone. Everything is slower from the clone [normal I would think]. It did not create a "hidden" partition this time as far as I know [nothing showing up in option > start]. There is another volume on the disk now that I created when formatting.

It’s slower because you’re using a 5400/7200RPM spinning drive as opposed to the internal SSD in the MacBook Pro. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk |

Re: Macbook Pro backup before repair
I know. I don't like that it did not create a "hidden" disk this time. Last time there was a dialogue prompt to do that and this time no. Maybe because its APFS this time?

If your hidden comment means there is no recovery partition, don't worry about it for now. If Apple replaced your motherboard you may get back a system running Mojave with a Mojave Recovery partition. We can help you manually replace (to match you OS) or delete the recovery volume on that system. Some folks don't like to use a recovery partition (if you have a bootable clones available you don't strictly ever need it--but it's more insurance if very bad things happen). |
