Not sure if this is a software or hardware issue, so forgive me if this thread is in the wrong place...
The problem:
My MacBook Pro (13", summer 2011 model, running Mountain Lion, 320 GB HD) will only boot to Internet Recovery.
Inside, when using the disc utility, it shows disk1 and Mac OS X base, as well as "4.14 GB ST_M13FQBL Media." The only external drive I've ever used is a 3 TB Seagate Backup Plus Desktop Drive, but it was not plugged in when the computer crashed (which prompted the Internet Recovery).
I should not that other start-up command prompts don't work (i.e. holding shift, command+r, option, etc.)
The question:
Could the Mac HD be misrepresented as "4.14 GB ST_M13FQBL Media" and if so, how do I go about rectifying this?
The goal:
Ultimately, I would like to salvage the data not backed up on my Seagate.
I'm happy to provide any pertinent information that I forgot to mention. Thanks for your help!
