    After talking to 2nd tier support there are no recovery disks yet. So if for whatever reason that you have to reformat your drive, you’re out an operating system. :cry:

    you can boot the xp recovery at the start up screen by pressing F12. I would think you could leave the recovery partition alone when installing another os.

    if you have an external cdrom and hard drive/smb share you could clone your working install with clonezilla
