    Please download GPT Fdisk from http://sourceforge.net/projects/gptfdisk/ . It will download two binaries, gdisk64 and gdisk32.

     

    Here is an example of running Gdisk on Windows. You need to run this in Windows in a Command Window with Administrative privileges. The link at the bottom is a tutorial for Gdisk. Post the output of the 'p' command as shown.

     

    C:\Users\MyName\Downloads\gdisk-windows-0.8.10>gdisk32 0:

    GPT fdisk (gdisk) version 0.8.10

     

     

    Partition table scan:

      MBR: hybrid

      BSD: not present

      APM: not present

      GPT: present

     

     

    Found valid GPT with hybrid MBR; using GPT.

     

     

    Command (? for help): p

    Disk 0:: 500118192 sectors, 238.5 GiB

    Logical sector size: 512 bytes

    Disk identifier (GUID): 22749ACF-207D-458E-B255-5DF02C39DC2D

    Partition table holds up to 128 entries

    First usable sector is 34, last usable sector is 500118158

    Partitions will be aligned on 8-sector boundaries

    Total free space is 1325 sectors (662.5 KiB)

     

     

    Number  Start (sector)    End (sector)  Size       Code  Name

       2          409640       250801735   119.4 GiB   AF05  OSY-MBP13

    You should also test if Local Recovery is intact or not. If you Mac supports Internet Recovery, please see OS X: About OS X Recovery - Apple Support . If you do not need OSX on internal disk, you can try  OS X: Installing OS X on an external volume - Apple Support .
