If I remember correctly, rescue mode isn't even *mentioned* in the F1-Help screens when booting from the CD! While there *is* an auto-GRUB-thing hidden in the expert installation menu, realistically most people won't find it because they won't think to look there for recovery options.
I think it's a good step to clearly include "Rescue" or "Bootloader reinstallation" options in the help screens at bootup. Also, this feature should mention what appears to be on each partition. Currently Rescue Mode only shows you "meaningless" partition numbers.
