On your Chromebook, select Recover using internet connection and follow the on-screen instructions. Shortly after you complete the instructions, your computer automatically restarts to complete recovery.
Remastersys is the tool to go for. It allows you to make an ISO image of your system including if you want your data. You can than create a bootable USB stick. My last experience was that the live usb/cd didnt work, but installation worked. In conclusion a perfect toll for your needs and or if you want to transfer a system to a friends computer.
Choose one of the following, depending on your situation. Both make use of dd to image your entire disk, not just individual partitions (you can also use this technique to migrate to an entirely different hard drive of the same size or larger):
Is there a way of obtaining the recovery image/software? I've tried to download the Samsung recovery app from the MS store but it comes up with an error message that I do not have the recovery partition on the SSD. This is just to make sure it's not a driver/software issue, although I am sure it isn't.
Hi @addy512 and @Spike121 . I had the same problem. I managed to fix it and create a recovery image iso for Samsung Galaxy Book2 Pro. This ISO can be written to a Pen Drive using Rufus and used to recover the computer. Let me know if you want the same.
The trouble is when I enter my service tag it prompts me to comply with its license aggreement and then just gives me a small .exe file to run on the laptop I want to recover. But I have no OS on that laptop.. since I wiped all the partitions and can't install an OS on that laptop due to its incompatibility with Win 10, Arch, Ubuntu etc..
Nowadays you can always use dells recovery image download tool. Not sure if older computers are supported, but I'm just downloading Windows 10 for my dell and looks good so far. maybe give that a try if you, like me, came to this forum thread in 2018 ;)
If Windows 10 installation hangs, try running diskpart's "clean" command. You have to remove the HD from your computer and attach it to a working Windows computer. Then,C:> diskpartC:> list diskC:> select disk n (where n is the disk number found in the previous command>C:> cleanC:> exit
Also going to add that attempting to make the install USB in Windows with Rufus, balenaEtcher, unetbootin will create a corrupt install USB and only the methods described in Create USB for installing Ubuntu 20.04 - DeepTalk - Deep Learning Community are the way to go for creating the install media.

My Understanding So Far: Given ARM-based Chromebooks can stream Netflix (and Netflix uses the WideVine CRM plugin), I am lead to believe a Chrome OS installation should contain the files I'm after. As I don't have access to an ARM-based Chromebook, my next best is a Chromebook recovery image.
In this case, the partition you're looking for is labelled ROOT-A, and corresponds to the third partition (/dev/mapper/loop0p3). For some reason, opening it in my file manager directly didn't work, so I had to mount it manually by running sudo mount -t ext2 /dev/mapper/loop0p3 -o ro /media/saikrishna/chromeos/. This will mount the ext2 partition in read-only mode in the /media/saikrishna/chromeos directory (change the last part to an existing empty directory on your system).
The recovery image on my machine has been assigned to drive I need this letter for an external drive (to make it easy to move my Lightroom database between computers). How do I change this to another letter? This option is not available in Disk Management for drive D:. Will this prevent recovery?
I know how to enter Recovery Mode, and how to use both local and internet Recovery to reinstall MacOS, but I have encountered a mid-2018 iMac that will not restore using either of those methods. It goes through the restore process, reboots a few times, but eventually hangs on the black screen with the White Apple logo and the progress bar at varying lengths.
I suspect that something is corrupted in this iMac. I suppose it could the the firmware (if that's where Recovery mode is located) or on the SSD (where I assume the recovery image is located). But I have searched and have found very little information on the actual implementation of Recovery mode.
This iMac has been taken to an Apple store where they have been able to run hardware tests (no problems found) and they have been able to restore the OS (Mojave) using their network server-based restore tools, but even they cannot get the built-in Recovery mode to complete an install. So I suspect there is something wrong with this iMac, but the Apple store technicians say that since it passes all their hardware tests, and their network re-imaging works. the iMac is OK. But it randomly stops working and has not once EVER been able to complete a MacOS installation successfully using it's built in (or internet) Recovery mode.
I just spoke with a different Apple "genius" at a nearby Apple store, and he said that starting with Mojave, there is no longer a restore partition. He said that all methods used in Recovery mode actually download the full restore image from Apple's servers. Obviously that implies that Recovery mode's "Reinstall macOS" option won't work at all without an internet connection.
But that description seems to contradict my prior experience where using the second option (pressing Command+Option/Alt+R) would initiate an "Internet Recovery". A white globe would appear indicating that the macOS restore image was being loaded from Apple's server.
UPDATE: I just ran the "diskutil list" terminal command mentioned in the article rkaufmann87 shared. I can clearly see a 510MB "Recovery" GUID partition on my internal Mojave APFS volume. Why would that be there if Recovery mode no longer uses it?
I recently found that I could upgrade to the new CWM touch recovery version for my EVO 4g! However, to do this through the ROM manager app or get it directly onto the phone at all, it required a payment, although they specified it could be found (the same version) for free on their website. So naturally, I went and downloaded it as soon as I could.
But instead of a .zip file, as things that I usually flash, it is an .img file. This made sense, since I figured I wouldn't be installing a new recovery through the current recovery version, but I am unknowing as to how to install this new recovery image.
If you have a fastboot-enabled bootloader version (such as the old 0.76.0000 engineering HBOOT in the EVO's case) you can use that to flash it from a PC via USB. Reboot into your bootloader, then select the "Fastboot" option from the boot menu (if it has one, it may start up fastboot automatically). Once it's ready, go to your PC's shell and execute:
One way is to open ROM Manager and choose "Flash ClockworkMod Recovery". Select your device when it prompts and wait for it to download the latest (non-touch) recovery. Using a file browser, go to /sdcard/clockworkmod/download//recoveries and paste your .img there. may be mirror.kanged.net or something else, just check the folders till you find an IMG file with the current date. Rename the existing .img to something else and rename yours to the exact same name as the existing file was named. For example, rename recovery.clockwork-3.0.0.0-evo.img to bak.img and then name your file recovery.clockwork-3.0.0.0-evo.img. Then return to ROM Manager and flash the recovery normally.

Aidb and horntot try to help me te recover my device. This first posts are irrelevant. The last ones are about my bricked device. I think you may have gone down the same path as I have, resulting in a phone that only has a fastboot screen
Thanks for the update langedarm, did you manage to boot to EDL mode? Or did you manage to get the device drivers set up so that the windows machine recognized your device. Neither of those two things is working for me!
Thanks
Hello everybody.
The only thing the easy installer did for me was unlocking the bootloader and very easily bricked my Oneplus 8 pro to the state that only the bootloader was working.
Installing recovery and via fastboot did not work.
I had to boot Windows 10 and followed the best and most straightforward method I found on the oneplus community site:
In the search box on the taskbar, enter recovery drive, and select Create a recovery drive or Recovery Drive from the results. You may need to enter an admin password or confirm your choice.
Select Recover from a drive and Fully clean the drive, and then select Recover. If you're prompted for a BitLocker key, select Skip this drive. Surface Hub reboots several times and can take an hour or more to complete the recovery process.
When the Hub reboots to the recovery partition, it will prompt you to enter the BitLocker key. Skipping the prompt will cause the reset to fail. Once you enter the BitLocker key, the Hub reinstalls the operating system from the recovery partition. This may take up to one hour to complete.
If you manage the device using Microsoft Intune or another mobile device management solution, retire and delete the previous record and re-enroll the new device. For more information, see Remove devices by using wipe, retire, or manually unenrolling the device.
To resolve the issue of missing Windows Recovery Environment files, you will need to copy them from the Windows Installation media to the running system. Perform the following steps on the machine that is having the issue:
Next, use the Export-Image function to export the install.wim for the Index ID that you need. For the example command below, the machine had Windows 10 Pro installed, and Index #6 matched that edition.
