Q: Bootcamp Partition Missing When Booting

Hello, i'm not a Tech Expert but I since I ran out of space on a partition of Windows 10, I went to Disk Utility on Mac OS X El Capitan (Beta), I resized Bootcamp. Restarted my MacBook, I was holding ALT until I see that the Windows Partition was missing and I only saw 'Macintosh HD'. Can anyone help me on this?

MacBook Pro, Other OS

    Thanks for your reply, much appreciated, having trouble booting into local recovery at the moment   Cmd - R tries to boot from Internet, in which the command csrutil doesn't work as I assume you know. Holding down Option on boot, to see boot options shows "10.11 Recovery" disk but selecting this seems to freeze on bootup (white slider progress bar under apple logo been stuck at 'complete level' for hours, have tried twice this way.

     

    Will need to find another way to get local recovery working tomorrow, and will report back.

     

    Cheers!

    If you have a the El Capitan Installer (or you can get it from the App Store), download it and installit on an external disk which will also give you a Recovery HD. Boot from this external Recovery HD and run csrutil.

    Please back up OSX, Windows and create a Windows System Restore point for future recovery.
