[QUOTE="NAYURTT, post: 1348805, member: 231464"] Hi there, Recently I tried to make clean lion install ,I had the copy in flash USB . I started through Recovery HD then did format on Macintosh HD driver which is has another partition for Timemachine backup . Unfortunately,I realized that flash USB doesn't work so I restarted my computer with option key hold and found only one drive can I boot through named ( BACKUP ) which is the name for backup partition on internal driver .I go ahead and boot and its boot to recovery !!!! then I just tried to make restore from backup and my OS was restored successfully !!! My question is : 1. how is the computer boot through backup partition while the recovery IMG was in other partition which was formated many time and the IMG also formated ? 2. What Kind of backup TimeMachine do ? is it only my files and data or including the LION OS ? thnx, and sorry for my simple language [/QUOTE]
