Oh wow, I forgot about command-r. There is an issue with installing cleanly
from that partition, however. If you're connecting to the internet through a
Wifi network, the menu to access said network isn't accessible with
VoiceOver. Yes, you do need to connect to the internet to install in this
way, since the install sends your serial number to apple for validation
purposes.

Hi,
Just found a way to use this partition.
Here it is.
All you have to do is when starting the Mac, hold CMD+R until it starts
booting. Then, you can turn on VO and you can get to the utilities such as
Disk Utility. You can even reinstall Lion this way.
HTH,
Jeffrey
