HI List,
If I have an external USB HD connected to my Mac, and it is the only external
device I have connected, which arrow keys and how many times must I press them
after I have held down the option key at start up? So far I keep managing to
boot to the recovery partition or to my Macintosh
First, have you created a bootable clone of your external drive? You can use a
program such as super duper or carbon copy cloner to do this. For me at least,
pressing the right arrow twice does the trick.

For testing purposes, why not simply go under the Startup Disk pane of System

The right arrow will boot in to the lion recovery, try the left arrow instead,
that's what I use and it works.
