I planned to connect an external drive, then superDuper the bootable clone
onto it. Using a firewire/thunderbolt connector, I could then boot from that
drive/bootable image.

Subject: Re: Cloning one Mac onto another?
Wonder if you can do the old 'target mode' thing on the MB Air (hold
down T during startup) to make it into the world's most expensive
external hard drive. Then connect it via USB to your old Mac and it
should show up as a drive. Then you could use SuperDuper to clone your
current drive onto the new machine. Did this once between MacBook Pros
using Firewire and Carbon Copy Cloner so maybe the same thing can be
done with USB?

Why not use time machine for this? I was able to install my iMac bought
back in 2011 onto my 2013 mac mini with no issues at all!

Is there any reason why I couldn't transfer the bootable image of my
late 2011 iMac onto my new, soon to arrive MBA? are these boot images
(created with SuperDuper) hardware specific? I have the iMac setup
the way I want it and, if possible, it would save alot of time and
trouble setting up the MBA to just image the iMac onto the MBA
?
