Recovery HD partition not created

[mreaso]

I normally use AutoDMG when creating a base OS for Casper Imaging. However, I've imaged almost 20 units and I can't see Recovery partition. Is there anything I've missed during the process?

It should be automatic. It isn't visible normally, how are you checking for it?

The recovery partition is hidden by default.

You can view hidden partitions in disk utility by enabling the debug menu doing the following :

Quit Disk Utility, open Terminal and type the following:

defaults write com.apple.DiskUtility DUDebugMenuEnabled 1

Open Disk Utility, the debug menu should be in the menubar. Select it and scrol down to Show every partition. You should see the recovery partition if it exists.
