Error : -69888: Couldn't unmount disk on my SSD Partition
Hello,
I just bought a refurbished iMac who was running on Sierra, and when upgrading on Catalina, it looks like the SSD part can't unmount.
I need to do it to delete everything and install a clean Catalina (this partition in 23Gb and 7Gb is occupied by Sierra). So i need to delete everything to get enough space for Catalina.
From that i tried many ways to do it, following Apple recommandations :
I tried :
- diskutil unmountDisk disk1
- diskutil unmountDisk force disk1
- diskutil cs create Macintosh\ HD disk0 disk1
- diskutil eraseDisk HFS+ Mac /dev/disk1
All failed with error code -69888: Couldn't unmount disk on my SSD Partition
Finally i installed Catalina on the HDD partition, in order to boot on it and delete the SSD part from disk utility, and got the same issue.
Any idea ?
Thanks for help
