Building an OS Image in Composer

I currently have an OS base install of 10.7 setup on an external hard drive. Will composer be able to build the OS image with the Recovery Partition, or must this be done separately?

I am aware that I may need to mount the recovery partition.

Thanks in advance!

It would be best to do it separately , so that it you need to update the image you do mess up the recovery partition.

Thanks for the tip! I captured the Recovery HD with composer separately, and set up the configuration as displayed here:

For some reason the recovery hd didn't make it.

Any ideas are appreciated.

you have to do an image of the device to capture the recovery partition and composer does not do that.
