Re: Booting from the Lion Partition
Hi Mika, As I understand it the command is new in Lion and is designed to make it easier for you to activate the recovery partition. I have never heard the command-r while powering on mentioned before the release of Lion.

Re: making a bootable dvd was: Re: Booting from the Lion Partition
Dragging and dropping is needed if you make a usb install flash drive not a dvd, I made myself a dvd but want to make a flash drive, what is the command from the keyboard to drag and drop from source to destination? Original message: William, You don't need to drag and rop, just go to the toolbar, click the burn button, find the image, and about 30 minutes later or so, you'll have a DVD.

Booting from the Lion Partition
I want to do a fresh install of Lion. I did the upgrade, but, as I mentioned on the list before, I am having a few problems. I am thinking a clean install might straighten it out. My problems seem to be unusual enough where I feel like something might have gotten corrupted during the upgrade or maybe even before. anyway, I am able to boot to the Lion partition with no problems. However, when I get to the part of the install where you have to put in your apple ID, apparently, that window is opening in the background.

RE: Booting from the Lion Partition
Hi, You don't need to enter your ID to clean install lion, or at least I didn't, all I did was connect via ethernet cable since the wifi menu is currently inaccessible, and it worked straight away.

Re: Booting from the Lion Partition
Well, if you did the download and install, it asked for your Apple ID and password before approving the purchase. then, if you went through and completed the install, it wouldn't ask you again. However, if you ever want to install from the bootable partition, then, it will ask again. I think I have found a way to do it though. I can boot from my external drive, this will be a full VO with a full OS booted, I think, then, it should work. So, there is a work around, but, I am still curious about doing it from the bootable partition that is designed for that purpose.
