the last update deleted the recovery partition
Hi, since the last update from Big Sur is the recovery partition gone (deleted?).
If i press cmd+R on start it will make an internet recovery.
On Catalina was this ok.
thanks

Using the Terminal command below will identify the drive structure of this computer
diskutil list
Below is illustration from an Apple M-Class Computer so on Intel it may look differently but will list Recovery Volume ( not Partition )
diskutil list
/dev/disk0 (internal, physical):
#: TYPE NAME SIZE IDENTIFIER
0: GUID_partition_scheme *251.0 GB disk0
1: Apple_APFS_ISC Container disk1 524.3 MB disk0s1
2: Apple_APFS Container disk3 245.1 GB disk0s2
3: Apple_APFS_Recovery Container disk2 5.4 GB disk0s3
/dev/disk3 (synthesized):
#: TYPE NAME SIZE IDENTIFIER
0: APFS Container Scheme - +245.1 GB disk3
Physical Store disk0s2
1: APFS Volume Macintosh HD 8.8 GB disk3s1
2: APFS Snapshot com.apple.os.update-... 8.8 GB disk3s1s1
3: APFS Volume Preboot 5.2 GB disk3s2
4: APFS Volume Recovery 741.4 MB disk3s3
5: APFS Volume Data 18.4 GB disk3s5
6: APFS Volume VM 20.5 KB disk3s6
thank you for your Answer. the list is almost the same, but my problem is: i cannot reach the recovery volume. cmd+R is internet recovery. Just R does nothing. i will sell this computer but when i can't reset these then not.

When i press "option" (alt) at the start, it shows just the systemvolume
alright i know now, what the problem is: in this iMac (Late 2014) is an 1TB OWC Aura Pro X2 Flash Drive.
The Firmware will not be updated. Firmware Version is still 230.0.0.0. Anybody knows how can i make this update?
Would suggest communication with the Manufacturer of the device
refer to below link
thank you, i've made it.
Welcome and thank you too
