bootcamp partition cannot be created
Hi All
Just looking for some help. I have tried most of the options listed here so far. I am unable to do any backups at the moment.
I am running into the problem of not being able to create a partition when attempting to install via BC Assistant.
I have tried (just to name a few);
1. disk utility (first aid on all volumes/disks)
2. disk utility in recovery (first aid on all volumes/disks)
3. /sbin/fdsk -fy in safe mode (some issues here with something I'm not familiar with)
There doesn't appear to be any unknown volumes/disks appearing but here is the output of diskutil
