[QUOTE="Zster, post: 1428997, member: 264077"] As i can see a lot of people especially guest are viewing this topic it seems im not the only one that has this problem. I can't boot on my Recovery HD which lead me to that it was somehow corrupted. (Test by restart and hold CMD+R) A lot of googling showed that it wasn't really straight forward but Chris Musing has been so kind to make a script that does the work for me/us. I had to manually delete the broken Recovery HD via diskutil (read the whole post i'm linking to). As we speak Chris' tool is downloading the DMG that is used. I will probably be back with a go or no go in the matter of a few hours ;) For the record i also had the "Recovery is broken something something message" when i tried to install Mountain Lion. Remember that there is difference if you have a ML recovery, L recovery or Snow Recovery. You have to rebuild the right for your original OSX.
