I don't have an Acer, but I have an Asus eeePC and they provided a DVD with
a recovery installation on it.   It also contains an application that puts
that recovery installation onto a USB key.  However you need Windows to run
that program!
I would be (not) surprised (as Acer are rubbish) if they did not provide a
similiar USB recovery installation device program too.
