here's the website:

You'll need to download MountainLion to your system from the AppStore before
running LDM.

Where do you get the Lion disk maker?

I had wondered about this same question, so , I created a usb thumbdrive
with the mountain lion installer and OS utilities on it. I used Lion Disk
Maker for this. I got the ML installer from the app store on my purchases
page.
Then, I booted from the USB drive, and using the OS utilities there,
erased the Mac HD and did the ML reinstall from the USB installer.
It worked very nicely, and I felt a little safer working off The USB
drive, than from the Mac HD recovery partition, which as you say, is
erased along with the erasure of the Mac Hard Disk.
Phew, hope that made some sense.

You would need to erase the entire partition first. Then, partition the
drive with 2 partitions. When you erase the drive, the recovery HD is
erased as well. However, when you install the OS on each partition, it
will create a new recovery partition.
Note that if you got that Mac with Mountain Lion, you will not be able to
install Lion on it. You cannot install a previous version of the OS than
what initially came with the Mac.

Hello folks.
I have a 21 inch Imac running Mountain lion. Now i want to repartition
the internal hard drive because i've just baught Pro tools and it doesn't
play well with Voiceover under ML. I take it i have to erase everything
and reformat my internal drive and somehow make both partitions bootable,
one with ML and one with Lion and what i wonder is what happens with the
recovery pratition when i erase and partition the drive? How do i go
about reformating so that everything is done right?
