Press Command plus R while holding the power button. That will take you to
the recovery options.

Subject: OS 10.10, does it still support the Reinstall option from the
Recovery Partition?

Question says it all.

I'm wondering this as I wish to do a reinstall of the OS on my Macbook Pro
but can't bring up the recovery boot process, I shut the computer down and
then restart whilst holding down the option key, I hold this down for 15
seconds or so.

Then I use the left arrow key to hopefully select the recovery utility or
whatever its called and then press enter but unfortunately the Macbook boots
up as it normally should.

Yes, I've tried hitting the right arrow after releasing the option key at
start-up <smile>.

I take it the option key is the key next to command?
