Lion, restore from timemachine backup?

Hello,

Has anyone been able to successfully restore their time machine image to Lion?

In other words boot from the Lion recovery partition and then restore from Time Machine back up on the drobo FS?

I know you need to connect-as in order to see the share which I did.

I also tried to make the time machine share public so it can be seen by all computers in the network.

In any of the cases, though, the Lion recovery always has the message searching for TimeMachine image.

migration assistence does not see the time machine FS share either.
