F11 recovery partition missing after clone

:idea: Sometimes when using Ghost to clone a ThinkPad hard drive, the F11 recovery screen disappears on the destination drive due to certain variables. The hidden partition is still present. There is a utility somewhere on IBM's site that you can run to fix ithe image drive so that it will again bring up the little "Press F11 to run recovery yadda yadda" screen.

I lost my bookmark to it. :oops:

If someone has the link on hand I would appreciate it :!: :!: :!:
