Help needed. I ran Bootcamp to install windows (obviously). All went well, rebooted, and nothing. The straight Mac experience. No sign of the win. All I have is a missing 30gbs. This partition is invisible to Disk utility.
Any suggestions as to how I can delete this partition? Thanks.
MacBook Air, OS X El Capitan (10.11)
BCA can fail while creating partitions.
Can you post the output of the following OSX Terminal commands?
diskutil list
diskutil cs list
sudo gpt -vv -r show /dev/disk0
sudo fdisk /dev/disk0
The "sudo" commands will prompt for your password, and it will not be echoed back. You may also see a warning about improper use of "sudo" and potential data loss due to "abuse" of the command.
Thanks for the reply. Here is the output.
gpt show: /dev/disk0: mediasize=500277790720; sectorsize=512; blocks=977105060

This is your 'lost' 32Gb.
Please run
diskutil cs resizeVolume 1186F0BF-8586-4158-B847-09C7117298AA 0g
Here is the syntax. See the underlined part. You may also need to run diskutil repairDisk disk0 in Internet Recovery to get the OS to rebuild it.
diskutil cs resizeVolume
Usage: diskutil coreStorage resizeVolume
lvUUID|MountPoint|DiskIdentifier|DeviceNode size
Resize a logical volume, which is one of one or more disks that consume storage
out of a logical volume group. The logical volume group will have more or less
available space after this operation, if it was a shrink or grow, respectively.
Specifying zero as the size asks for an "automatic" fit-to-fill-LVG operation.
Example: diskutil coreStorage resizeVolume
11111111-2222-3333-4444-555555555555 10g
Hi,
I ran the command. I got an error message ? :
Traveller:~ Traveller$ diskutil cs resizeVolume 1186F0BF-8586-4158-B847-09C7117298AA 0g
The Core Storage Logical Volume UUID is 1186F0BF-8586-4158-B847-09C7117298AA
Started CoreStorage operation
Error: -69674: The provided Core Storage logical volume has an incorrect size; you should run whole-disk repair
As expected. This is the reason I mentioned the repairDisk previously. Boot into Internet Recovery (not Local Recovery) and run
diskutil repairDisk disk0
Post the output of the command and check diskutil cs list to see the status of Free Space.
I am trying to find how to reboot into internet recovery mode. I do have a bootable usb flash drive. Can I use that?
I ran the diskutil repairDisk disk0
Here is the output.

1. Do you still have the output of the repairDisk command?
2. You CS volume still shows. Can you reboot and check the output of diskutil cs list? The CS LVG/LV should correct the Free Space summary after the cs resizeVolume.

Thanks Loner. It is Vals Day morning in Bangkok. So busy for a few hours with the gf. Will get back to the Mac later.
The Mac can wait. 😉 . Happy Valentine's Day to you and your GF! Enjoy!
A man must prioritize!
I rebooted into internet recovery, and ran the two commands. How does that look? Still missing 30gbs.
Hope you are having fun on Val's Day.
Ian
