Part 1 Install and Config: Lesson 4 Flashcards
What two resources does the local OS X recovery HD need in order to reinstall OS X Mountain lion?
The local hidden OS 10 recovery HD doesn’t include the OS 10 installation assets. Thus, reinstalling OS X Mountain lion from here requires high-speed Internet access and the ability to verify access to the installation assets. Upgraded Mac computers are verified by entering the Apple ID used to purchase OS X Mountain lion. Conversely, verification is automatic for Mac computers that included OS X Mountain lion.
What utilities are available when started up from OS 10 recovery?
The OS 10 recovery system provides access to Restore from Time Machine backup, reinstall OS 10, get help online, disk utility, start up disk, firmware password utility, network utility, terminal, and reset password.
What two methods can be used to create an external OS X recovery disk?
The OS X recovery Disk Assistant can create a minimal OS 10 recovery disk. A full OS X recovery disk can be created by using disk utility to copy the Install OS X Mountain lion application assets to the disk.
