In continuation of another post above a bootcamp disk problem, i ask to now how to crate a Bootcamp partition on a 3To. Fusion drive using command on terminal like:
diskutil list
diskutil cs list
sudo gpt -vv -r show /dev/disk0
sudo gpt -vv -r show /dev/disk1
sudo fdisk /dev/disk0
sudo fdisk /dev/disk1
The end of the first thread:
Can't format former Boot Camp partition
Thanks.
iMac, OS X Yosemite (10.10)
Sorry, did not get a chance to post on this before.
There are two options,
1. Use diskutil cs resizeStack, or,
2. Re-install Yosemite by using the steps from the previous thread, but this time create a Bootcamp-suitable volume also.
Nothing move anymore, i have this:
The computer is very, very slow.
MAJ: Correction, it move at 74%, the operation is very slow but still working.
Once it finishes, can you post the output of
diskutil list
diskutil cs list?
Ok, he finish but...

Looks like the numbers being used are being rounded and cause some issues.
Using size in bytes 2198162292736 (2.2TB) - 262144000 (250Gb) = 2197900148736
The same thing probably happened to BCA as well. Try exact bytes rather than GB, or leave a gap.
So i try again with Boot camp entering for exemple 300 Gigas?
The following syntax specifies a shrink from 2200g to 1800g and create a BOOTCAMP of 250g in freed-up space.
diskutil cs resizeStack 7D2AB070-B558-4788-BD0F-ECD835245C2C 3DDE5754-7274-4D58-AED2-EF28CC6A28AF 1800g fat32 BOOTCAMP 250g
If there is an error, it will rollback.
Sorry but i dont understand clearly, so i enter this?
diskutil cs resizeStack 7D2AB070-B558-4788-BD0F-ECD835245C2C 3DDE5754-7274-4D58-AED2-EF28CC6A28AF 1800g fat32 BOOTCAMP 250g
Or do i try another time with Bootcamp and another disk value?
Because of lack of documentation, reduce the current 2200g to 1800g and ask diskutil to create 250g fat32 Bootcamp in the freed-up space. The problem with this method is that it may create the BC partition at the end of 1800g, not at the beginning of disk1s2, which is my preference.
Ok so let's go for:
diskutil cs resizeStack 7D2AB070-B558-4788-BD0F-ECD835245C2C 3DDE5754-7274-4D58-AED2-EF28CC6A28AF 1800g fat32 BOOTCAMP 250g
Yes, please execute and post the output of diskutil list and diskutil cs list.
We miss 1 To.

A new logical volume can be created in the Free Space as the following GPT command output should show. The current LVG is 1.8TB (the remaining 1.2TB is Free Space on the physical disk).

Before you can install Windows, a new MBR needs to be created. Can you post the output of sudo fdisk /dev/disk1 to check if there is an MBR that exists? If there is no MBR, you will need one. To create one, you will need to download and install GPT Fdisk (Gdisk) from http://sourceforge.net/projects/gptfdisk/.
