I've just used T/Machine to restore to my new Mini - and it works fine EXCEPT that I can't boot from the recovery partition.
I use CCC as well as T/Machine, and CCC alerted me to the fact that I would need to grant access (via the recovery partition procedure) to allow me to boot from a CCC backup.
I've tried (1) rebooting using CMD-R, (2) rebooting using Opt-CMD-R, (3) rebooting using Shift-Opt-CMD-R, (4) rebooting holding D to do a full diagnostics run (which shows no problems) then going from there to the recovery partition, (5) I ran Diskutil list and it shows the partition is there (if I read it correctly).
With option (2) above I get a globe with 'apple.com/support -3401F' as a message, and with (3) I get the same, only the error code is -3001F. I've searched on these codes and find nothing.
Before I contact Apple support - does anyone know a fix for this? I obviously can't reinstall the OS as I can't boot from an external drive!
