Depending on your security settings, you might need to use the Startup Security Utility before using
|
||||||
|
the Boot Disk (see below).
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
### [Startup Security Utility](https://support.apple.com/en-us/HT208198)
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
With newer hardware, you should be running with the Apple T2 Security Chip (found via → About This
|
||||||
|
Mac → Overview → System Report → Controller). In order to boot your machine using the Boot Disk,
|
||||||
|
you'll need to *temporarily* disable the default security settings as follows:
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
- Turn on or restart your Mac, then press and hold `COMMAND + R` immediately after seeing the Apple
|
||||||
|
logo.
|
||||||
|
- Select Utilities → Startup Security Utility from the main menu.
|
||||||
|
- Click "Turn Off Firmware Password".
|
||||||
|
- Select "Secure Boot: No Security".
|
||||||
|
- Select "External Boot: Allow booting from external media".
|
||||||
|
- Quit the utility and restart the machine.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
You'll now be able to boot your system with the Boot Disk (see above).
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
After the new operating system has been installed via the Boot Disk, *ensure you return to the
|
||||||
|
Startup Security Utility and re-enable the following settings*:
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
- Click "Turn On Firmware Password".
|
||||||
|
- Select "Secure Boot: Full Security".
|
||||||
|
- Select "External Boot: Disallow booting from external or removable media".
