3 Partitions, where do these things come from?

[djrod]

Hi, so I have the usual Macintosh HD(Renamed SSD) and Recovery HD but I discovered today that I have a third, called Mac Os X Installer, If I try to boot from it I get a Kernel Panic.

If I run disk util list from Lion I see the partitions first mentioned, but there is no trace of this Mac Os X Installer partition

Is it a partition or a volume mounted on your desktop from a disk image?

Nope

Nope

did you by any chance do a Bootcamp Partition? It could have somehow messed up.

Can you post a code that you are currently seeing? It would help out somehow.
This is what I see after installing Windows 7 under Lion using Boot Camp Assistant:

/dev/disk0
   #:                       TYPE NAME                    SIZE       IDENTIFIER
   0:      GUID_partition_scheme                        *500.1 GB   disk0
   1:                        EFI                         209.7 MB   disk0s1
   2:                  Apple_HFS seong                   404.0 GB   disk0s2
   3:       Microsoft Basic Data BOOTCAMP                95.8 GB    disk0s3

This way, we can see what's the size of that drive.

Here is the partition table, where are disk0s3 and disk0s4

/dev/disk0
   #:                       TYPE NAME                    SIZE       IDENTIFIER
   0:      GUID_partition_scheme                        *120.0 GB   disk0
   1:                        EFI                         209.7 MB   disk0s1
   2:                  Apple_HFS Macintosh SSD           119.2 GB   disk0s2
   3:                 Apple_Boot                         650.0 MB   disk0s5
