Bootable clone on Apple silicon absolutely needs fast external drive
This may not resolve everyone’s problems, but it’s important to know that for clones to be bootable on silicon Macs (I have an M2 MBAir/Sonoma) you absolutely need to have a very fast external drive. IME, HDD won’t do the job, you need an SSD. I got an OWC envoy express thunderbolt 3 (usb-c) and fitted it out with a 1 TB OWC Aura P12 Pro. Now my SD! clones are bootable with no hassle. I did the same for a friend with the same machine. I’m not too tech-savvy, so I don’t know whether there might be other drives fast enough, but thunderbolt 3 surely is. I would suggest, Dave, that you make this very clear in your instructions.
