[QUOTE="duketv, post: 1634528, member: 341642"] Well that is exactly the point. It doesn't allow me to do a full reformat of the OS X partition. When I try to, I get the error that 'the drive cannot be opened'. Is there another (guaranteed) way to format my drive? While keeping the Recovery partition intact so I can do a clean install from there. [/QUOTE]
