Q: bootcamp problems

Moving post from :

in response to George Aprianto

 

My MBP is MacBook Pro 17-inch, Late 2011, Intel core i7, 16GB memory DDR3 and 2TB SSD.

 

- Mac OS Capitan 10.11.6 and Windows 10 64 bit had run very well before upgrade to Sierra.

- I also create 3rd partition named DATA which is readable and re-writable from both OS by Paragon NTFS for mac.

 

But after upgrade to Sierra, there is no option to boot to windows 10.  had not upgrade bootcamp tools for Sierra to avoid erasing windows 10 boot.

 

Here is the result of :

 

diskutil list

diskutil cs list

sudo gpt -vv -r show /dev/disk0

sudo fdisk /dev/disk0

A:

Your MBR is incorrect. It is pointing to your DATA partition for Windows. Can you use Re: [Help] Can't boot to windows (8.1) after resizing partition as a reference and recreate your MBR?

    Very thanks Loner ... you are genius.

     

    It is always partition number 3 4 5 as listed in your reff and no other sequence like 2 3 4 or any number?

    Excellent. Please back up OSX, Windows and create a Windows System Restore point.

     

    The reason it is 3 4 5 is because you have the extra DATA partition. We map it as

     

    GPT1+2 = MBR1

    GPT3 = MBR2

    GPT4 = MBR3

    GPT5 = MBR4

     

    Under normal/standard configuration the mapping is 2 3 4 as

     

    GPT1 = MBR1

    GPT2 = MBR2

    GPT3 = MBR3

    GPT4 = MBR4

     

    The limit is because you can only have four (4) MBR entries.

    Below is only scenarios.

     

    So, what number I should use IF I had 5 Partition: MAC, DATA1, DATA2, DATA3 and Windows.

    All DATA partitions is shared between MAC and Windows.

     

    Is it still use 3 4 5 also?

    One extra partition can be corrected using 3 4 5, but if you have DATA[1,2,3] and Windows, that is already 4. If you add GPT1+2+3 into MBR1, you can only have DATA1, DATA2 and Windows.

     

    It is better to use a UEFI Mac, if you want these many partitions. Macs after Late 2013 models do not require MBRs for W8.1/W10. You can use only GPT disks, which allow 128 entries, so you can have up to 125 entries of DATA and Windows leaving three for EFI, OSX and Recovery HD.
