Felix, I agree with you... I have had to redo EMachine recently and NO IT DID not put the Recovery Partition back... It simply FORMATTED the existing HD space and installed the OS back..plus all the other crud, trial programs, and such...
Since the recovery partition is actually hidden, it might be possible to use a 3rd party recovery program to restore the partition and files...
I have not tried this, but booting to CD or DVD and using the program it might work..
