Internet recovery launches automatically - why?
Hi all,
Maybe two separate issues here but trying to solve one has given rise to another more serious one.
I found that repairing permissions solves what appears to be buggy behaviour in Mail's search function.
Since moving to Lion I've repaired permissions by holding down apple R on boot and using terminals "reset password" function to repair permissions on my account.
However the last few times rather than taking me directly to the screen where it gives you the option of using disk utility, terminal etc it has launched directly into internet recovery and starts downloading from Apple.
I was a bit confused as to why it was doing this but I think I might be correct in understanding that it has detected an error, however I'm usure why it keeps doing this.
As I am curently without wifi it makes repairing permissions impossible as I cannot get past the screen where I select the wifi network to download the drecovery from.
Is there a log or something where I can check why it is detecting an error that needs interent recovery repeatedly?
Thanks in advance
