yes, you can access Disk Utility via the menu structure from within the
recovery tool, just as you can from within the Mac OS X installer utility.
But, if it's too much hassle to go to the Utilities folder to a

Through the recovery tool, you can access disc utility. You can also

you didn't, :)

I'm not quite sure what this was in reply too. The below doesn't quite seem to
make sense to me. I never mentioned disk utility at all.

A thumb drive is a little USB stick, about the length of your thumb (hence the

Hello Michael,
Yes, a thumb drive is the same as a USB memory stick, and can be plugged into
the USB slot of your MacBook Pro.

Are you talking about a USB thumb drive or a SD card? I would
presume the former. If you use the recovery tool, you'll have no
trouble. I think

is the larger ones. It won't fit onto a single layer disk.
