I just have one question:
Why is it, that after removing a bootcamp partition, that I cannot create a new one, despite it being the exact same size, and there only being about 5 minutes between the two actions taking place? Apparently I need to reformat my drive - well, I'd like to but
1. Not everyone has storage to backup onto
2. I shouldn't have to - no new material was downloaded, nothing new was created since deleting the old partition.
3. I backed up the bootcamp partition onto the main drive before repartitioning - I don't want to lose two lots of files here.
So please tell me, why on earth am I expected to reformat when there appears to be no good reason why BootCamp is unable to repartition my drive?
Apple, please learn to partition.
Thank god I have a server on the network I can backup to - but seriously, why should I have to?
That considered, what about iDefrag?
