Hi Michael, So I am assuming you used Command R right and then did a recovery. Actually there are a couple different ways of acomplishing the task. Command R is great for VO users but not so great for putting a new copy of the OS on the computer. Command Option R is a better solution in this case the only problem is that you have to have sighted assistance to get it all going but once going which includes setting up the wireless and then waiting for the world to spin for the sighted user your set because once the world spins and the sighted person has indicated that to you then it’s just a matter of waiting and then you can use VO to do the rest but you have to wait for the image of the OS to download. This still doesn’t address your situation I’’ll be sure to report this to Apple though.
