Okay I'm running from the Superduper drive now and yes, I think the problem was that the Macbook wasn't detecting it earlier on, the drive was detected this time around when I held down the Option key at the sound of the start-up chime and then I released it some 15 seconds later and pressed the left arrow key and return so now time to restore the backup with Superduper.
