Back when I first got my iMac w/ Lion, I created a Clone + Recovery disk on a 16GB stick. The only apps I had added to the basic setup were my printer/scanner and Carbon Copy Cloner. No docs, pics etc had been added. Since upgrading to Mt. Lion, naturally there have been many apps added and of course all kinds of docs, pics, music, video etc. To make a clone/recovery disk for Mt Lion, would I literally need a disk as big as all that is used on my iMac's HDD (little less than 250GB), or could I create one with just my OS 10.81 + apps?
