Recently I tried to resize my bootcamp partition. I first resized the Mac osx partition to a smaller one with diskutility and appended this space to the bootcamp partition from within windows 10 (with the program ease US partition manager). Although this worked perfectly fine for the bootcamp partition, I unfortunately lost the Mac OSX partition. This became clear when I restarted my machine and I did not get the startup options (using ALT-key). Instead it directly started to load windows 10.
What I did so far:
- I tried to restore the GUID table (?) from windows with a program called GPT fdisk.
- I tried internet recovery and reinstalled Mac osx on a usb drive
I tried to first aid the partition which failed
I tried to use other posts like this one: How can I make my Mac partition bootable again?
gpt -r show disk0 gave:
The "dd" comment unveiled that my ssd is formatted with AFPS scheme. However when I tried to add the AFPS partition it said: no space available on the device.
I have good hopes that my partition is still healthy, but I'm getting on uncharted territory in terms of knowledge, so hopefully you can help me out on my quest to recover my partition. Many thanks in advance
