The Recovery partition is recreated when doing a successfull reinstall from the Recovery Disks.
Enter BIOS by tapping away at the F10 key immediately after powering on. Is all system info complete there?

How do I install just the Lion installer via the lion recovery partition.

I am trying to bootcamp windows 7 on my new macbook pro (early 2011), the installation was successfull but i am missing drivers on the windows side and cannot access the internet until i install them. I installed all the bootcamp updates and put them on a usb to transfer to windows partition but windows kept telling me i need an earlier version of bootcamp which is not available from the update support downloads section of the apple website.
After some research i realized i needed the mac boot disc for lion, which doesnt exist so i need to create my own. I was told i could install lion from the lion recovery partition.
here is my question....If i install lion onto my mac partition that currently has lion, can i stop the download after the initial 4 gb installer and not go through with the full re-installation of lion? so that i can then take the installesd.dmg (i think thats right) file and put it on a dvd to install from the windows partition and finally get the drivers i need to get it running.
Comment: based on what i have read on how you used to bootcamp a mac, apple has made it very difficult, unneccesarily difficult it seems.

Before you do anything else, I suggest a thorough read of this:

How do you repair the EFI systems partitions when you mac tells you that the live file system is not supported?

how do you repair the EFI systems partitions when you mac tells you that the live file system is not supported?

I don't have good news. You will need to repartition and reformat the hard drive in order to determine if the drive is still OK or if it needs to be replaced. If your computer is a 2011 model or later do the following:
Install Mavericks, Lion/Mountain Lion Using Internet Recovery
Be sure you backup your files to an external drive or second internal drive because the following procedure will remove everything from the hard drive.
Boot to the Internet Recovery HD:
Restart the computer and after the chime press and hold down the COMMAND-OPTION- R keys until a globe appears on the screen. Wait patiently - 15-20 minutes - until the Recovery main menu appears.
Partition and Format the hard drive:
Select Disk Utility from the main menu and click on the Continue button.
After DU loads select your newly installed hard drive (this is the entry with the mfgr.'s ID and size) from the left side list. Click on the Partition tab in the DU main window.
Under the Volume Scheme heading set the number of partitions from the drop down menu to one. Click on the Options button, set the partition scheme to GUID then click on the OK button. Set the format type to Mac OS Extended (Journaled.) Click on the Partition button and wait until the process has completed. Quit DU and return to the main menu.
Reinstall Lion/Mountain Lion. Mavericks: Select Reinstall Lion/Mountain Lion, Mavericks and click on the Install button. Be sure to select the correct drive to use if you have more than one.
Note: You will need an active Internet connection. I suggest using Ethernet if possible because it is three times faster than wireless.
This should restore the version of OS X originally pre-installed on the computer.
If your computer is pre-2011 model, then locate the original installer discs that came with the computer. Then do this:
Clean Install of Snow Leopard
Be sure to make a backup first because the following procedure will erase
the drive and everything on it.
     1. Boot the computer using the Snow Leopard Installer Disc or the Disc 1 that came
         with your computer. Insert the disc into the optical drive and restart the computer.
         After the chime press and hold down the "C" key. Release the key when you see
         a small spinning gear appear below the dark gray Apple logo.
     2. After the installer loads select your language and click on the Continue
         button. When the menu bar appears select Disk Utility from the Utilities menu.
         After DU loads select the hard drive entry from the left side list (mfgr.'s ID and drive
         size.) Click on the Partition tab in the DU main window. Set the number of
         partitions to one (1) from the Partitions drop down menu, click on Options button
         and select GUID, click on OK, then set the format type to MacOS Extended
         (Journaled, if supported), then click on the Apply button.
     3. When the formatting has completed quit DU and return to the installer. Proceed
         with the OS X installation and follow the directions included with the installer.
     4. When the installation has completed your computer will Restart into the Setup
         Assistant. Be sure you configure your initial admin account with the exact same
         username and password that you used on your old drive. After you finish Setup
         Assistant will complete the installation after which you will be running a fresh
         install of OS X. You can now begin the update process by opening Software
         Update and installing all recommended updates to bring your installation current.
Download and install Mac OS X 10.6.8 Update Combo v1.1. You can now download a version of OS X from which to upgrade from your Purchases page in the App Store.

How to unpartition D and its recovery partition and add to C using Windows 8.1 tools

I have a new Fujitsu Lifebook, Windows 8.1 with a 600gb disk and when I go into Disk management I see the following partitions in this order.
Healthy (Recovery Partition) 768 mb 100% free
Healthy (OEM Partition) 768 mb 100% free
Healthy (EFI Partition) 260 mb 100% fre
C: Healthy (Boot, Page File, Crash dump, primary Partition) 340 GB 88% free
Healthy (Recovery Partition) 350 mb 100% free
D: Healthy (Primary Partition) 340 GB 100% free
Disk Management does not let me free up the second recovery partition (between C: and D:) so I am not able expand C: after I free up D: because they are not contiguous. How, using Windows 8.1 tools can I safely expand C: so that it'll be 680 GB (taking
the space from D:)?

Will reinstalling Lion via the Lion recovery partition cause you to loose all of your applications, documents, etc or does it just replace the Lion operating system and leave everything else untouched?

Will reinstalling Lion via the Lion recovery partition cause you to loose all of your applications, documents, etc or does it just replace the Lion operating system and leave everything else untouched?

The latter. I cant tell you how many times I've reinstalled lion! all your apps will be fine!
Things that will change are system graphics if you altered them with something like candybar or did it manually.
Having said that, you should always backup your stuff with time machine incase something does happen.
This is a very important step which will insure the safety of your files while doing things like updating or installing the OS.
Please exercise caution when doing things with a Hard Drive.

How to find windows version in recovery partition T60

My T60p is running W7. But I don't recall if I upgraded it from XP. I want to reload my operating system because weird things are happening. But I don't want to go back to xp. So, how can I tell which operating system is on the factory recovery partition?

you can't change the content in the Lenovo recovery partition. But windows can allow you to create a similar sort of recovery partition that contains the current windows 8.1.

Can the D recovery partition be hacked, i,m worried.

Hi to all,
I have a HP Pavilion 15 Notebook less than a year old and about 4wks ago it was seriously hacked and the hacker had gained privelage rights to virtually everything, well most of my systems services were taken over, and god knows what else they done, the crazy thing is i have norton antivirus installed and all up to date and malwarebytes trial was running yet they were giving the all clear so i'm not sure how they managed to filter or bypass those, the thing i am worried about is when i looked into the hidden files i noticed a couple of files on the D recovery partition were of the same date it was hacked and was wondering if they might have hacked or modified the recovery partition so that if i done a factory reset it would still allow the hacker access to my laptop, luckily i did make a set of recovery disks as soon as i bought the laptop so using these should remove any sign of a hack or would they have modified the bios or uefi, i,m just really paranoid now and at the time of the hack i had £300 taken from my bank account by someone in bangkok. Also they might have got my windows 8 and office product keys etc, can they use these?.
If doing a full factory reset with the disks i made when bought will this remove everything that the hacker done to my system, any help greatly appreciated.

Normally the files in Recovery partition are 'Read only' and protected. Should be safe to do a reinstall from the partition, but if you are uneasy about it just boot from the Recovery Disks.

How to delete Windows 8.1 Recovery Partition

No, if I create a USB recovery pen on this system IT DOESN'T SHOW ME AN OPTION TO REMOVE THE ORIGINAL RECOVERY PARTITION. I had to go throgh EASEUS Partition Master to delete recovery and extend drive C and after that couldn't boot as usual. Had to use the recovery pen to go back to the out-of-the-box OS.And of course, the 10Gb recovery partition pops up again ....Now do you understand my problem?....

OK. I know what is going on. That 10Gb partition is indeed related to the new WIMBoot technology and it needs to be there. To be honest you are probably ahead of the game in terms of drive space leaving the WIMBooting in place. Here is a blog article that explains the WIMBoot partitions.http://avisek.pl/translations/installing-windows-8-1-on-asus-t100ta-wimboot/ The important part is this and the two screens after it. rem == 1.

May I remove without any risk the two recovery partitions in win 8.1 Pro 64bit and what is the hidden reserved partition?

I have this partition situation on my unic disc C & D for Windows 8.1 Pro at 64bits (see fig. 1)
and this is the same list from diskpart:
My first question is: may I remove partitions 1 and 5 without any risk?
My second question is what is the reserved partition 3 and why is not mentioned in Disc Manager?
Thanks for your help and excuse if the images are in Italian but I'am using an Italian OS.

I am not entirely convinced about your answer.
Yes the first partition of 800 MB may be the OEM original partition, (by ASUS containing Win 8.0) that I upgraded with a disk to Windows 8.0 Pro, and than upgraded to Win 8.1 Pro from Windows Store.
Now I made a full backup image of factory settings (win 8.0) on a USB key and now, after the upgrade to win 8.0 pro and then to win 8.1 this backup copy is useless.
The second partition is a system EFI partition and because the disk is a GPT basic disk and not a MBR, that partition is where (is that correct?) are system and boot info together with the hidden reserved third partition.
About the fourth recovery partition I suppose it was created when I created and installed Win 8.1 Preview on a VHD disk with double booting menu (that I deleted after the release of Windows 8.1).
This is why I asked if the two recovery partitions can be safely removed.
So, with this more info, may you review you answer and confirm or give me more details about all.
Thanks in advance.

How do we setup the queues so that they process data automatically

Hi Guru
how do we setup the queues so that they process data automatically in XI/PI ??
thanks and regard
Madavi

Hi,
There is actually one thing that needs to be checked -
You need to make sure the QIN scheduler is active before messages are processed automatically otherwise they will remian unprocessed on the queue.
Speak to a Basis person about this and they will ensure it is running.
Hope this helps.
