Rebuild Recovery Partition

long story short, while attempting use windows system recovery image restore boot camp partition, managed delete lion recovery partition.

lion internet recovery still works, want real recovery partition can activate filevault2. lion recovery assistant won't work, since requires recovery partition present on ssd. online hacks have seen far either same, or require version of lion downloaded app store.

formatting drive , reinstalling lion using lion internet recovery rebuild recovery partition?

on side note, has had luck using winclone 2.3.3 (the version fixed work lion) clone windows 7 64-bit boot camp partition? i've found windows system recovery image bit useless. if try restore windows setup, messes mac partitions. if install windows manually , attempt restore within windows, won't copy system files on (just data). ccc won't make bootable partitions. might try paragon, $50 seems bit much.

 

formatting (repartitioning) drive , reinstalling lion recreate recovery partition. i've done myself. i'm not sure if there easier method though.
