Hi, thanx for the quick reply. No joy.
I renamed the external disk to the same name. When I rebooted holding down the Option key, the external disk had the same name as the internal disk, plus a space and a 1, i.e., internal=MacPro-1 external=MacPro-1 1. I selected the external disk and the default desktop background image still came up, not the one selected when I boot from the internal disk.
I have not tried to look at, let alone touch/update, the default folders to exclude. Might there be something along these lines I should investigate?
Other ideas on how the external disk copy results in a user configuration the same as the original, internal disk?
Thank you.
