[XDA Assist] m27frogy:
I've got a fancy new Asus K01A and as far as I can tell, I'm the first to try to root it on xda, or at least the first to try to make CWM for it. When you're making CWM, it's rather important to know exactly where the recovery partitition is, in case I need to flash something from fastboot to correct something stupid it did. Problem is, I can't seem to find a partition for recovery, here's a bunch of partition information I gathered:

I'm wondering if somehow there is a specific file or if the recovery is somehow integrated into the bootloader. If so, my hopes are dashed :crying:
