Hi daniel.

first off, ensure you’ve backed up everything. glad that SuperDuper works for 
you. it’s a useful product and part of my toolbox.

open up system preferences and go to Startup Disk. you should see your new 
bootable volume listed. if so, select it and tab to restart. now you can 
continue reformatting your HDD using disk utility within the installer then 
installing your OS. it is important to format the HDD because otherwise you 
will end up with corrupt data.
