Good evening everyone

I have been trying for a few months to clone my boot drive, as I want to partition it to have a dual boot, so I want to keep my original boot drive safe in case something fails.

I used super duper to clone it. But when I boot using the cloned drive, the admin password does not work. I put back the original boot drive, and it works as expected.

I am running Mac OS Mojave on a Mac Pro 5,1.

Any ideas on what is causing the admin password to not work on he cloned drive? I tried to clone it at least 4 different times, formatted the drive, cloned from an image, etc.

Just wonder if anyone here had the same issue and managed to solve it.

Thanks:)
Marcos
