I'm happy with Lion and finally got Boot Camp tamed down to be usuable, so I'm continuing to set up my environment as it was pre-Lion. After installing the current version of rEFIt today (which I removed from my installation due to the talk of incompatibility problems), I noticed that there were a couple of things off-kilter with rEFIt:

1) the normal rEFIt boot menu shows OS X and Windows, NOT the Recovery HD. There seems to be no way (that I found) to show it by default. 2) If I hold down "option" while rEFIt is loading, I get 3 choices in the main - rEFIt, Windows, Recovery HD. My 3 additional bootable firewire drives show up as iMac Clone 1, iMac Clone 2 and Mac OS X as I suspect they would.

Is there any way to get 1) to show the Recovery HD partition?

Is there any way to get 2) to show my Macintosh HD instead of "rEFIt"?

Thanks for your time!

Michael
