I have an iMac with OS X.6.8, one HFS+ partition. Yesterday, I wanted to install Win7 using bootcamp.
Bootcamp gave me an error message saying the disc cannot be partioned or resized. I CAN however, partition or resize using Disk Utility (my hfs+ partition is GUID).
Using Partition inspector gave the following report :
*** Report for internal hard disk ***
Current GPT partition table:
# Start LBA End LBA Type
1 409640 624880303 Mac OS X HFS+
Current MBR partition table:
# A Start LBA End LBA Type
1 1 625142447 ee EFI Protective
MBR contents:
Boot Code: GRUB
Partition at LBA 409640:
Boot Code: None
File System: HFS Extended (HFS+)
Listed in GPT as partition 1, type Mac OS X HFS+
Now, I have installed Ubuntu using rEFIt a couple of months ago, but I erased everything and went back to one HFS+ mac os X partition. But maybe some files weren't completely wiped (the GRUB thingy in the report gives it away, I think).
Now, I could wipe my drive, reformat and reinstall everything and use my TM-backup to put all my apps and files back, but that's a bit drastic. Also, I used iDefrag (demo) to check my drive and apparently, it's heavily fragmented.
Any ideas ?
