rMBP Recovery Partition Clarification
Ok I'm more of a System 7 kind of guy and recently upgrading my Mac and OS coming from 10.6.8 so I'm new to this whole recovery partition thingamajig.
Can someone just confirm the recovery partition is on the firmware or SSD and is it hidden? (Mid-2012 rMBP)
I just want to make sure I can safely boot from a USB, use Disk Utility to wipe the SSD and reinstall Mac OS and I will not lose the recovery partition because in Disk Utility I can only see the one partition so I'm afraid if I wipe it it wipes everything including recovery.
Any insight would be much appreciated, thanks.
