Feb 26, 2015 1:26 PM in response to dhikajby Loner T,If you can, use Time Machine to backup OSX, run Internet Recovery (OS X: About OS X Recovery - Apple Support) and erase your internal disk, restore from TM, and try Bootcamp Assistant again.

Feb 27, 2015 4:19 PM in response to Loner Tby dhikaj,Hi Loner T,
Thanks for your suggestion, however I did a step wrong and I am facing another bigger problem.
Step 1 was to use time machine to backup OSX, looks like I failed to do that, and only backed up the data instead. Because after I erase my internal disk, I cant restore from TM.
So now the situation is that I can't access my HD, can't reinstall Mac to that hard disk (it is not detected), Cant use DU to repartition the hard disk as well, option not selectable.
What can I do now?

Do you have a Fusion Drive? Do you have a second Mac or can you OS X: Installing OS X on an external volume - Apple Support?

Feb 27, 2015 5:46 PM in response to dhikajby Loner T,Target Disk Mode using a second Mac was my suggestion. If you can install OS X on a external USB, it may be a bit easier to switch between Terminal and Safari. Can you post diskutil and diskutil cs list?

Feb 27, 2015 5:59 PM in response to dhikajby Loner T,You have a CoreStorage volume (which is Yosemite default). Run the following command...
diskutil eraseDisk JHFS+ OSX disk0
If this does not work, post the output of diskutil cs list.
