How to Boot from USB flash drive on Apple Silicon Hardware HD

If you found this video useful please like and subscribe to our channel. In this video we demonstrate how on an Apple Macintosh computer, you can boot from a USB Flash drive. Typically you would want to boot from a USB Flash drive if you need to reinstall macOS from a USB recovery drive or you want to try out a Linux distro without installing it on your Mac. Note: At the time of posting, a Mac running on Apple Silicon (M1 Processors) can not run Linux. However, progress is being made so that Linux distro’s can be run on Apple Silicon hardware. So hopefully we will start to see Linux distro’s running on Apple Silicon in 2023. Note: While we talk specifically about USB flash drives in the video. You could also connect and boot from an USB external Hard Drive. -- Content of the video ---------------------------- 00:00 - Intro 00:35 - Power down the computer and insert USB drive 01:02 - How to load Startup Options 01:30 - A summary of the Startup Options Screen 02:34 - Return to normal boot mode --------------------------------------------------------------- ◽Blog Site: http://mydoodads.com​ ◽Ko-fi page: ko-fi.com/mydoodads ◽Amazon Page: https://www.amazon.co.uk/shop/mydoodads​ ◽Youtube channel: mydoodads #MacBook #M1 #apple
