I have a MacBook Air 2011 with stock 10.7.2 Lion.
I want to make a recovery disk to boot to access Disk Utilities for recovery purpose.
As the laptop has stock Lion install, there is NO Lion installer (from the App store) for me to extract the dmg file. I also don't want to "download" the Lion Recovery Assistant as it forces me to only use a USB flash thumb to dump the image. I like to use a DVD instead.
Is there any way to extract the "recovery image" from my laptop without downloading. Is the image hidden somewhere in my laptop (again, unlike others who upgraded to Lion, I don't have an installer from which to extract the image)?
Please help?
