How do I delete a bootcamp partition?
Hi there,
I recently had to re-install Windows 7 on my bootcamp partition. Being an idiot, I thought simply reformatting the partition to exFat, and then back to ntfs, would sort it out. Now I can't do anything with the partition. I noticed that instead of simply 2 partitions, one for mac, and one for windows, I somehow made 3 parititons, spilting the mac into 2 separate mac sides, so how do I restore my hard-drive back to no partitions at all? When I go into disk utility, the minus and plus button are completely greyed out, and it's the same when I restart holding command + R. I recently tried to wipe it, doing the most secure wipe which took close to 19 hours but it didn't help the problem at all, just prolonged my problem. So any ideas? I've been searching the forums and the majority seem to just say press the minus button, which doesn't work for me, I'm guessing because I re-formatted it. Any help would be greatly appreciated.
