Since upgrading to Catalina I have been unable to make a bootable clone using Super Duper, which I have used for years. Super Duper simply won’t creator copy the system patrician. Time machine copies it. Is this normal?

I have had the exact same problem with CCC. The latter was updated to latest version. Some here suggested a few things for me to try. This has only led computer crashes and problems shutting down. Time machine works also.

I don't use Super Duper, nor have I as yet (because of all the issues) updated to Catalina; but a little googling finds some info. This has a pretty good description of the differences ?in Catalina, and seems to say that a recent beta of Super Duper can mostly handle it, although for situations like an encrypted drive, some extra work by the user will likely be needed.

Howdy.

Remember that Catalina, for the first time, splits the System and Data
parts of the boot drive into two linked volumes.

It will very likely require a re-write of SuperDuper to deal with that.

There is a Catalina-compatible SuperDuper! beta out now, reference in

Howdy.

I'm sure Time Machine was updated for Catalina to deal with separate
System and Data volumes. SuperDuper will need to be re-written to deal
with those two new volumes.

You can see the two using Disk Utility.

The developer of SuperDuper released a new beta version for use with Catalina on Saturday.
