Lost partition after failed bootcamp
Hi all,
Yesterday i tried using bootcamp to install windows 7 on my macbook pro. Made the usb installation thingy and started the rest of the procedure. While my computer was making a bootcamp partition (around 40gb) on my 256gb ssd I started cooking my dinner, when i came back i found my macbook restarted because it hit a problem. So i tried to install windows by the usb thing and found out my laptop couldn't find the bootcamp partition during the windows install.
So at this point my disk utilities shows my 256gb samsung ssd 850 evo as a 213gb hard drive without a second partition. Even when i start up my mac with the option+cmd+r or option+r mode it doesnt show the bootcamp partition. Im not really sure what happened or what went wrong so hopefully someone can help me out.
Some information.
- So before I replaced the optical drive with my old hhd (500gb) and placed a second hard drive (the Samsung ssd 256gb) in my macbook pro.
- I had a ntsf-3g driver installed.
- Bootcamp wont let me remove the bootcamp partition (it isnt even a possibility)
- Started in recovery modes and use option repair disk in disk utilities wont work neither
- Booted in single user and used /sbin/fsck -f

So if someone can help me get my 40 gb lost partition back i will be very grateful, if not....at this point the easiest answer for me is to do a clean install of my macbook and hard drive. The problem is that im not sure it will also wipe the lost bootcamp partition at the same time, as it doesnt shows up in recovery mode? Or could i repartition my whole ssd while doing a reinstall of osx on my ssd?
Thanks in advance!
