Hey all,
I've been making recovery partitions for awhile during my imaging using the articles referenced on here. They are part of a smart configuration and are set correctly per the imaging KB Article.

None of my settings have changed however recently I've noticed that the recovery partition is also being named Macintosh HD.

Any ideas?

    I'm presuming you are wanting to create Recovery HD and not a Casper recovery partition. If that is the case I recommend a method that has never once failed me.

    Greg Neagle over at Disney developed an installer package that you just have to add the right parts to (he tells you what and how) and the resulting package will create your Recovery HD Apple's way, sized right and named right. I have it install as a first boot task during the imaging process. This works for us on all of our Macs everywhere in the district

    P.S. You might want to clean up the botched recovery partitions before attempting this though.
