• New Hp laptop comes with 4 primary partitions. How do I creat more than I can duel boot

  New Hp laptop comes with 4 primary partitions. They are system, OS (C drive), recovery and HP tools > how do I create a new partition so that I can duel boot withour causing the entire disk pass the dynamic that would get me no where?

  If you change something, it may invalidate your warranty. If you need to return your laptop to HP, they will just wipe the drive and start over, no questions asked.

  You must remove the HP tools or the recovery partition. I think that removing the partition on an HP tools automatically goes to sleep you out of the recovery partition.

  If you delete the recovery partition, you must make sure that you have done the set HP recovery disk and it is on quality discs and safely set aside.

  If you are planning on dual booting with different versions of Windows, make sure that Windows utility block each other. For example, don't let Windows defrag loose on the other OS partition.

• Impossible to split the partition not visible is (C) to a new system - 4 primary partitions

  Hello

  TL; Dr. I'm probably stuck with 4 primary partitions (two WINRE, EFI and (C), and unable to split C on an installation DVD HP fresh system.

  320 HARD drive failed on my G6 2233 HP laptop. I have fitted a replacement for 500 GB and does the following:

  • installed Windows 8 from the HP System Recovery DVD (provided by HP, not recorded by me, new facility)
  • deleted partition recovery with HP Recovery Manager
  • installed all the updates of Windows 8, and updates HP Support Assistant
  • upgrade to 8.1 Windows
  • installed all the updates for Windows 8.1 and updates HP Support Assistant

  Went to the system partition tool, see 4 primary partitions created...

  

  At this point, I was not aware, this can be a problem. I tried to split C as seen on the image. Has not been able to define the desired values (max stood at about two of equal size, because of ummovable files), but this was nothing new for me - on the previous 320 HARD drive that I met the same problem, I could (but COULD) make two of 14xGB were leaving.
  Here I wanted to 120 GB and GB 344.
  Anyway, even with different values I have a mistake in the next step, claiming that it has no place on the HARD drive.

  So I decided to try the EasyUS software, as it has helped me in the past.
  First screen is without any intervention (there are a bunch of weird music here, all created by HP software/operating system).

  
  I could choose to reduce the size of the partition, but the ability to create from unallocated space was not active.

  

  I'm confused. If I'm not mistaken, I shouldn't remove two WINRE and an EFI partition, but I either convert logical partition C (have no idea how, this option only is not active on EasyUS (could do that on my HDD USB drive), or remove one or more of the other primary partitions.)

  Even if I'll find a way to convert logical C, which is safe, and that I should after D creation C back in elementary school?

  I tried to play safe and let the HP/OS software do the work, and they left me with 4 primary partitions...

  OK I found the guide which unfortunately is not sure... Any other ideas?

  http://h30434.www3.HP.com/T5/other-notebook-PC-questions/how-to-REPARTITION-HDD-of-HP-notebook-with-...

  Unfortunately, they seem to have different names... Probably do similar things, but could someone just highlight is the partition EFI HP as mentioned in the guide, tools etc.

  I guess I should, after that installation of Windows 8 and deleting the recovery partition, create a new partition can and upgrade to 8.1... Would solve many problems, but I'm not sure it would work and really do not want to lose more than two days on this...

  I solved the problem with reinstalling Windows 8 from the DVD, and then deleting the partition recovery and at this point to divide the C partition and finnally upgrade to Windows 8.1. It works, and it was the safest, but probably not the best way to solve the isue. Previously I installed Windows 8, deleted the recovery, improved to 8.1 and got 4 primary those linked above.., so that the difference here is divide and distributes itself in the intermediate stage...

  Thank you for your interest and have a good year.

• Failed to create a primary partition 3

  I have Vista professional. Cannot create anything beyond 2 primary partitions. What could be the cause of this? At the moment there are 2 primary partitions. The first one has Windows Vista on it. I wanted to put Windows 2008 Server on a partition of 3rd. What happens if I install the new OS on the 2nd partition? The files that are already there be at risk? It's a really ugly way of doing things if I use this 2nd partition.

  All that I can get a "logical" partition, no matter who. There is no need to install an OS of course.

  Also, what is the difference between the regular OS Windows 7 Professional and Windows 7 Professional System Builder? I see that Integrator system costs less than $ 300 for the regular installation disc.

  I am not sure Windows Server, but another version of Windows will install fine on a partition extended with a 'logical drive '.

  If you plan to go on the road to the Server installation on the 2nd partition promary can I create a backup of these files to external media, delete them in the partition and then install the server.

  You can also try a third-party utility to create another partition "primary".

• Creating a Partition on a new R200?

  Hi, I have new portege r200. Came from the factory with XP pro and one partition, taking up the entire drive. I would like to create more than 2 partitions on the disk. I have need to dual boot. Here, that I do not have an external cd burner, however have ext floppy disk and data key. I downloaded partition magic 8.0 shareware. Can I create 2 partitions without messing up the OS? If so, how? Is it better to create primary partitions or logical drives?

  I did it successfully on my old laptop, which had a cd/DVD-ROM internal, but used F.Disk. Any advice?

  Hello

  Well, the magic of Partitions 8 is a very interesting tool for creating and managing partitions.
  When more than four logical drives are required on a single physical disk, the first partition must be a primary partition. The second partition can be created as an extended partition that can contain all the space not partitioned remaining on the disc.
  A primary partition is one that can be used as the system partition. If the disk does not contain a system partition, you can set up the entire disk as one extended partition.

  In addition, you can create 2 partitions on you without any problems and in my opinion the 8 unit is the best tool to do.

• 4 primary partitions on my laptop

  I want to install linux on my laptop, but there are already 4 primary partitions on the hard drive (max because it turns out that). As far as I know the main account recovery partition, correct me if I'm wrong, please. Discs, 4 partitions management function are the following:

  1.46 GB - Healthy (active, recovery Partition) 100% free space
  561.99 Go - Healthy (start, page file, crash dump, primary Partition) 12% free space
  21.09 Go - Healthy (Primary Partition) 100% free space
  11.26 GB - Healthy (Primary Partition) 100% free space

  What I can find on the forums around the internet, 21 and 11 GB are supposed to be the partitions toshiba recovery has done for windows and it is software.

  Why are the scores of recovery 100% empty, I can understand that for a ++ active partition recovery but...?
  If these two partitions are partitions of recovery Toshiba, which is for windows and which is for the software?
  If these two partitions are partitions Toshiba Recovery, will be one work without the other (I would like to format the partition containing the backup software)?
  Why are the big scores? (default Windows 7 family is only 6 GB, and there is no way that the software is 11 GB)
  If you're not Toshiba recovery partitions, what are these two partitions?

  Otherwise, no matter what other suggestions?

  Initially, it will be useful to know what model laptop do you have, what operating system do you use and do you always use original Toshiba operating system.
  Because partitions recovery methods different image installation structure on old A300 or new A660 is completely different is not easy to say what is right or what is wrong.

  Structure of the partitions listed in disk management is a bit strange for me and on my notebooks with original Toshiba OS it looks completely different.
  In General, you need to track: start the preinstalled operating system (factory settings) and create recovery DVDs using Toshiba recovery disc creator pre-installed too. After having done that, you can do with your computer laptop all you want.

  Note please. When you change the structure of the original partitions, install own OS or change anything, that you will not be able to launch the installation of HARD drive recovery and install Windows using recovery partitions. Then please create recovery DVDs before you change anything.

  Back to your questions:
  > Why are the recovery partitions 100% empty, I can understand that for active recovery partition, but...?
  To be honest I n don't know why this is shown as empty. Toshiba recovery image is a large file and, as far as I know, he is not divided and placed in two different partitions.
  > If these two partitions are partitions of recovery Toshiba, which is for windows and which is for the software?
  Recovery don t image consists of two parts.
  > If these two partitions are partitions Toshiba Recovery, will be one work without the other (I would like to format the partition containing the backup software)?
  I understand your question, but recovery image is not designed into two separate parts. There is an article and can not be changed or manipulated.
  > Why are so big partitions? (default Windows 7 family is only 6 GB, and there is no way that the software is 11 GB)
  Good question. Unfortunately I n t have good answer to this question.
  > If you are not partitions Toshiba Recovery, what are these two partitions?
  For better understanding model laptop post and what OS you are using. Is this original state you have with your laptop (factory settings)?

  > If not, no matter what other suggestions?
  I have already written. Create recovery DVDs and you can change what you want. Later, you can use this recovery DVDs to get factory settings again. You can use these DVD discs so often as you want and without any limitation.

• Z220 SFF - want to dual boot, but you cannot create an additional primary Partition

  I want to install a second operating system, but I have more primary Partitions.  I want to install Win 8.1 Pro; I have an OEM Win7-Pro that came pre-installed on the original HARD drive and then I rebooted on a SSD drive, I used to replace the original HARD drive.

  The SSD has three partitions - all of the primaries, and I don't know if I can get rid of a (or merge with an existing one) in order to create the primary partition, I need for the new OS. My understanding is that Windows only allows three primary Partitions.

  The 256 GB SSD has the following primary partitions:

  1. System (drive G :) - 2GB in size (NTFS) - I have no idea what it is.)  The disc contains two folders (recovery and Remote Programs - two of them empty) and a file of 1 KB called System.  But when I check the properties of readers, he says it has 376 MB of space used.

  2 HP_Tools (l: car) - 105 MB (FAT32) - the interesting thing is that this player does not actually appear in the computer management/Win7 disk management tool.  I see it only when using a third party tool (Partition of AOEMEI).

  3. C: drive -l' remaining space (I actually now it split into another D: drive which is where I want to install the new OS, but since the other three disks are primary partitions D: drive appears as a logical partition).

  What are the options I have to configure a dual boot on this drive?

  Thanks for any help.

  After much research I could identify that I could safely get rid of the HP System Tools partition and use the resulting Partition of Primay free for the second operating system.

  I've not found an option to load the HP tools on a USB key. But I don't use really anyway, so not a great loss.

  Thanks for all the help.

• Creating image of the system partition to a new hard drive FACTORY_IMAGE

  Sorry if this has been posted before...

  The neighbor in its Pavilion's hard drive is dying. I can access all the files on the partition FACTORY_IMAGE, but not the primary partition because of hard drive problems. He did not make a recovery DVD/CD set. I have the drive plugged into another computer. Is it possible to recreate the DVD recovery since the FACTORY_IMAGE partition with the damaged main partition and hard disk in another PC? I am aware that he can order replacement from HP discs, but it would be nice to slap a new hard drive in this weekend and bring it to the top and running. Thank you.

  He has proved to be easier to reintall windows, then the drivers from scratch.

• dynamic disk recovery issue and I cannot make a primary partition

  I have to cover, please read in full before answering a few questions. This problem started when I made another (retractable) partition on my main drive to run another operating system in a duel start setting. I made this partition, then I think that all my partitions (including recovery) computer went to dynamic. I deleted a partition, so I'm not going on the max 4 so I could do a primary, but she's still dynamic (that I made). First of all, I want to be able to make a primary partition to boot another operating system, and how can I do this without deleting my recovery? I don't want to use 3 third party software, unless they are free. Since my recovery is now a dynamic partition, can 2nd question, I still make a recovery? 3rd question, if I have to delete everything to my basic primary partitions, then can HP gives me a way to backup the recovery, or a least a way to send a recovery disk. Also, when I made the partition, I deleted the HP tools which was 200 MB partition (I think, but I don't remember), how can I reinstall it? Or it is necessary. Overall, I need to make sure that my system windows 7 will be stable with recovery and use with dynamic partitions. In addition, I have not used this program, but I was looking at a problem with a program called HxD Hex, http://www.wilderssecurity.com/showthread.php?t=191006, I did not try this because it says this sector 0 1 2 location of the partition I tried to do a primary (Hex) actually says 4f instead of 42. ANY HELP WILL BE AMAZING! At least tell me my system can be stable with a dynamic partition, and I can repeat once if something goes wrong.

  Him did not have a hardware upgrade.

  Yes HP recovery disks will change back, but the question is that HP Recovery Manager will not be able to burn recovery discs, or perform a system partition recovery until the hard disk is converted back to base. At least this is what I've seen other posters.

  Seems (to me anyway) the only option is to use the software I mentioned above and convert back to basic & burn recovery discs or order from HP recovery discs.

• convert a primary partition in extended partition

  Hello
  I created a partition on my pc windows 7 (d) for data storage, but I discovered that it is defined as a primary partition, and not an extended partition. This gives problems with acronis backup.
  How can I convert to an extended partition?

  I thought to...
  1 copy the files from d: to somewhere else temporarily (no program, only the data)
  2 delete the partition.
  3 increase in the size of the c: partition to cover the entire drive again (using the partition of windows 7)
  4. create partition d: again, taking care to specify 'expanded' this time (using the windows partition 7)

  Who is?
  Is there an easier way?
  Tom

  Windows partition tool (diskmgmt.msc) does not come with all the tools that are easy to manage your disks, but I think steps below should be the way all about working your needs: the following steps is also more of: "how to create D (logical partition) disc in Windows 7."
  You have to log in with the Admin account that ot must run under programs as an administrator.
   
  1. backup your data from your drive hard if you need to.
  2 type diskmgmt.msc in start-> run. And press return to open the windows disk management tool.
  3. click right on "C:" drive and select Shrink Volume ", wait for the application to calculated the new size and click"Shrink"." You have now added "unallocated space" after C: you can use. (advice to fragment your drive first to get more additional free space).
  4. now if you create the new Volume (or Partition) with all the unallocated space, and is not the 4th Partition and then by default it will be "Primary Partition". So to get around with to
  Keep creating small (I would 1 GB) Partitions up to what you do that 4th. "The 4th will default the ' Extended Partition (or you can say logical Partition). Be sure to allocate all the space remaining in the 4th.
  5 delete these partitions of 1 GB that you created previously and you can expand "C:" or "D:" drive to use the free space created by removing these Partitions of 1 GB.
  6. so as a result, you should have 2 Partition:
  C: Primary Partition.
  D: extended logical Partition.

  I hope this helps.

• How reduce the Win7 boot partition, then move the other partitions left in newly free space?

  Summary: How can I shrink/move partitions on my HDD 650 GB physical so that they reside in the first 500 GB of that drive?

  I have a newly purchased HP dm4-2070us laptop with Win 7 Home Premium (HP OEM) installed on the hard disk of 640 GB.  This hard drive is slow, so I would like to replace it with a 500 GB Seagate Momentus XT.

  In order to be able to clone all the partitions of the 640 GB drive for the smallest 500 GB replacement drive, I need to shrink the partition C: (main window), then move the partitions remaining 'left' ending up with all partitions in the first 500 GB of the disk so I can then copy this image to the new drive of 500 GB.

  I already have the software to clone the partitions of the 640 GB drive for the 500 GB drive.

  My concerns:

  (1) the administration tool Win7 disc printing should it allows me to shrink the C: boot partition, but I don't know if that can damage anything.

  (2) move the SYSTEM partition, or the partition RECOVERY left the impression that he could render the system unbootable.

  Here is a screencap of my current scores in the Win7 disk management tool:

• Wizard BootCamp 6.0.1 running on El Capitan 10.11.5 installs single partition BootCamp on the disc Fusion consisting of 128 SSD part G SSD and 3 TB of HARD drive on an iMac (retina 5K, 27 inches, end of 2014), but not the part of the HARD drive?

  How is it assistant BootCamp 6.0.1 running on El Capitan 10.11.5 installs single partition BootCamp on the disc Fusion consisting of 128 SSD part G SSD and 3 TB of HARD drive on an iMac (retina 5K, 27 inches, end of 2014), but not the part of the HARD drive?

  This has two questions:

  1 capacity of SSDS faster for Fusion drive has been reduced. Therefore less effective for the reader of the merger. For example if I need to create a partition of 80G for my windows bootcamp partition, only 48 G will be left in the drive of the merger.

  2. ability of the bootcamp windows partition becomes very limited, cannot be greater than 120 G.

  3. even when I try to fuse out of the drive of fusion in the 128 G SSD and 3 TB of HARD disk, and then run the BootCamp assistant to create the bootcamp partition start from scratch to reinstall El Capitan only on the HARD drive (without drive Fusion), it won't let me do anything, it just shows an error that says something like "a person has created additional partitions on this drive please select. another disc. But there is nothing else to choose.

  Before my (5 K, 27 inches, end of 2014 retina) to El Capitan Yosemite, I was able to use the previous version of the wizard BootCamp 5.x to create the partition, bootcamp on the drive of the merger. And it will be divided in the fuser unit in two and insert the Bootcamp partition (with the size I chose, which can go up to 1 TB) between two partitions of MAC OSX.

  The disk partitions resulting from it, will be the partition MAC OS x on the SSD, the partition MAC OS x on the HARD drive partition #1, partition MAC OS x on the HARD drive partition #3.

  Then there is the BootCamp partition on the HARD drive partition #2.

  Is there a way to get what I need?

  That is what has been described in this notice of two canoes?

  Installation of Windows on a Boot Camp partition on a drive of TB Fusion 3

  n-on-a-3-TB-fusion-drive http://twocanoes.com/Winclone/support/installing-Windows-on-a-Boot-Camp-partitio

  Thank you.

  After having worked on those weeks, I realized that I need very painfully (by first going back to Yosemite and bootcamp 5 to escape all the limitations of El Capitan and BootCamp 6) I want to share here. Someone at - it other smarter solutions welcome.

  Note these steps and mentioned drivers only work for my version of iMAC, retina 5K late 2014. If you have other material, please search on the web to see which driver will work first. And all of these steps are destructive and assumed that you first take backup. It is only shared for interest only. Readers will have to bear your own risk.

  A. take backup

  1. take a backup completes my iMac Fusion Drive using Time Machine. Then restart with a Yosemite USB installation and select Terminal from the menu on the top bar.

  B. fuse out of the merger in two physical disks drive: SSD + HDD

  1. in the terminal, type the commands in show what the logical volume group ID and the ID of the logical Volume of the disc fusion)

  Cs diskutil list

  2. in the terminal, type commands for the fuse of the fuser unit and separate them to an SSD and a HARD drive.  Note: All data will be destroyed in the drive of the merger. There are many articles in this community on how this could be done,

  diskutil cs deleteVolume Logical Volume ID

  CS diskutil remove logical Volume Group ID

  This should finish within 30 minutes. If you have taken more time, this means that your reader of fusion has been altered somehow.

  I hit this issue too.  To use this command to remove the fusion drive hung up, and I need to do the hard to scramble a few sections of data in the hard disk partition table using the controls to tell the OSX this hard drive is a new without partitions:

  Cat >/dev/random /dev/disk0 (where/dev/disk0 is the SSD)

  and repeat for disk1/dev/disk1 which is the HARD drive in my case).

  This command will not return anything, but expect to press Ctrl-Z to end after 1 minute.

  2 create independent partitions (non-fusionend) for the installation of OSX.

  Borne Terminal output, and select disk utility, in disk utility, select the drive to HARD disk (and not on the partition), you will see the error message and you will be asked if you want to fix the fuser unit, click on ignore. Then wipe the HARD drive to create a single 'extended OSX journaled"named"HARD drive".

  3. Repeat step 2, and then erase the SSD drive to create a single 'extended OSX journaled"named"SSD ".

  C. install on the HARD disk as drive didier autonomous not fusion.

  1. go to Yosemite install screen and proceed with the installation of a clean copy of Yosemite to the iMAC. then connect you.

  D. use BootCamp Yosemite f5 to install windows.

  1. launch Yosemite bootcamp.

  2. check the two checkboxes for creating the USB drive to install windows 7 or a later version, and to download the windows supports the Apple software.  Do not click on the last box to install or remove windows pie creating real bootcamp partition again.

  3. it may take several hours to complete this function of your internet b/w and also performance of your USB drive.

  4. If you install Windows 7 (like me), then the downloaded drivers will not work for you, this will cause the issue of the device driver appleDSS.sys does not like this driver and others are too recent for windows 7 to use.  Also, your keyboard and mouse may not work even if you try to plug in a USB external keyboard or a mouse. You need to replace the drivers downloaded by others (the Boot Camp 5.1.5769 drivers that I find in this link: Software Support of Boot Camp 5.1.5769.) (Note: this driver is material specific only works for my iMAC model).  Once you have downloaded it, copy the two files in the root directory of the USB installation to replace the original ones. It's specific and material available for download somewhere on the Apple Site.

  -From the Finder, delete the $WinPE$ and the Boot Camp of the FLASH PLAYER files.

  -Expand the old drivers for Boot Camp 5.1.5769 (two records and another file) on your desktop.

  -Copy the $WinPE$ and records of Boot Camp in the FLASH PLAYER.

  5. open Boot Camp Assistant again and only select the third option, install Windows 7.

  It will show you the screen to select what installation disk, select HARD drive.

  Then drag the slide bar to select the size of the Bootcamp partition for windows you want, knowing that there is a restriction for windows installed using training camp on a MAC that the last byte of the BootCamp partition must reside in the first byte of the 2.2 T of each physical hard drive.

  For my case, I need only 500G for bootcamp and leaving behind 1.7 to for my MAC OSX partition immediately after the bootcamp partition and an another 0.8 T MAC OSX partition after him. 1.7 TB and the partition of MAC OS x 0.8 TB well exploited in the meantime bootcamp partition, will be merged into a fusion drive by Bootcamp. Thus, you will end up with total 2.5 TB of disk space in a logical drive - fuser.

  Go to this link for more details on this subject: n-on-a-3-tb-fusion-drive http://twocanoes.com/winclone/support/installing-windows-on-a-boot-camp-partitio

  6. continue the process to partition the hard drive, then it will restart automatically in windows installation mode, install windows.

  7. once the installation is complete, check that windows is functioning correctly.

  E. Si you want to upgrade to windows 10 Windows 7.

  1 if you plan to upgrade to windows 10, you'll find that the windows IE v.8 7 is no longer works and had many problems to load the page.  Then when you try to download the latest version of Internet Explorer, you get an error that you need at least windows 7 SP1 to support the last IE.  Life is too complicated, just download the google Chrome browser, then search for download windows 10 and then run the Microsoft valuation tool to upgrade.

  2 but before upgrade you, unplug all your MAC USB drives, otherwise, you will find that, after having spent an hour downloading the windows 10 software, the upgrade will fail with the error "/ dynamicupdate...» ». It is an inexplicable mistake that no one seems to understand why. There are articles with proven results that the removal of all USB drives before running the windows 10 upgrade tool will correct this problem.

  F. reinstall OSX El Capitan

  Once your target windows system (if windows 7, windows 8 or windows 10) works very well.  You can continue to create again your Fusion drive and reinstall OSX El Capitan.

  1. Insert the install of OSX Yosemite rear USB to the iMAC, and then select Restart Windows, or stop, and then turn the MAC once again.

  2. When you hear the ringing tone, press on and hold down the option key for 10 seconds. Then you release.

  3. on the selection screen, select start Yosemite OSX install drive.

  4. after starting, do not proceed to install OSX El Capitan again. But select Terminal from the menu bar.

  5. in the terminal, type the command 'diskutil list cs' and you should see nothing to prove that there are no existing fusion drive yet.

  6 type the 'diskutil list' command to list all disks and partitions.

  The SSD has two partitions, the/dev/disk0s1 of EFI (209 MB) partition and the other/dev/disk0s2 of OSX partition we created in step B above, called SSD around 121 G.

  The HARD drive has two partitions, the/dev/disk1s1 of EFI (209 MB) partition and the other/dev/disk1s2 of OSX partition we created in step B above, called SSD.

  G. delete the logical storage of nucleus on the HARD disk drive and it refuses with the DSS to form a merger with faster performance disc

  1. Insert the install of OSX El Capitan rear USB to the iMAC, and then select Restart Windows, or stop, and then turn the MAC once again.

  2. When you hear the ringing tone, press on and hold down the option key for 10 seconds. Then you release.

  3. on the selection screen, select start Yosemite OSX install drive.

  4. after starting, do not proceed to install OSX El Capitan again. But select Terminal from the menu bar.

  5. in the terminal, type orders for (to show what are the logical volume group ID and the ID of the logical Volume of the logical drive). You should see the logical volume to basic storage group created using two partitions on the hard drive, 1.7 TB and TB 0.8 created when we run the Yosemite Bootcamp to install windows.

  Cs diskutil list

  6. in the terminal, type commands to delete logical drives from basic storage.  Note: All data will be destroyed in the logical drive.

  diskutil cs deleteVolume Logical Volume ID

  CS diskutil remove logical Volume Group ID

  7. tap "diskutil list" command lists all the resulting partitions. You should see that the HARD drive has the following partitions.

  / dev/disk0 (internal, physical):

  #: NAME SIZE TYPE IDENTIFIER

  Note: Mark the group id of logical volume shown in the results.

  In my case, I want to book the last partition as standalone partition disk1s5 no-fusionend, so I can use it to raise the back, or format it in FAT32 to allow the exchange of data between the MAC and boot camp.

  So, I do not understand this last partition in the drive of the merger. in my case, the command that I used is: diskutil cs to create "myLVG" disk0s2 disk1s2

  9 create logical volumes named "Macintosh HD" (or you call it) on the logical volume group we just created for the reader of the merger.

  11 exit the terminal, go back to OSX El Capitan install screen and select the name of the fuser unit 'Macintosh HD' proceed to begin the installation of the os x for installation.

  12. There will be a step in the installation ask you if you want to configure as a new computer, or restore from a time machine previous backup. Make your own choices it accordingly.

  13 once OSX El Capitan has been installed and you have finished restoring the data and custom configurations, you can enter the application of preferences to check if you see the icon of the "Startup" disk", and if you choose Startup BootCamp in the next reboot, you should be able to boot up to Windows without pressing and holding the button option when reboot and choose to start windows manually. Also, in windows, you should be able to click on the bootcamp Control Panel and select for a startup to OSX on the next reboot.

  14. one thing to be aware, if you install bootcamp in this way, the boot camp and the GUI utility disk in OSX El Capitan will not be able to adjust your settings. This means, if you need to touch anything or to readjust the size of the partition, you will need to do it again in step A. Alternatively, some how to get started with installing Mac OSX Yosemite USB, then adjust the partitions using similar commands shown in this article or other articles in this community.

  15. yet once please take personal responsibility on damage if you follow the instructions in this article.

• Only the C partition on the new Satellite C50-B-14Z

  Hello

  I'm not an experienced user, but I'll do my best to explain the problem.

  I bought Toshiba Satellite C50-B-14Z with 8.1 installed Windows, and when starting the system, I noticed that there is only one partition of hard drive, the C partition. When you enter the disk management, I see there are 4 basic partitions already (500 GB disk):

  -Recovery - 1 GB
  -EFI system - 100 MB
  -Recovery - 10.97 GB
  -C (boot, page file, crash dump, primary partition) - 453,57 GB

  They are all primary partitions, and I read on the forums that you can have only 4 those primary, so I can't add one more to the D partition, I would like to have.
  Possibility that I offered in "actions" is to create a virtual hard drive, but I guess that is not the same thing.
  I also read that you can create new partition if you have "unallocated" space (partition), but all 4 before indicated are those primary and not affected.

  Then, the next opportunity that I read on is to do a right-click on C and "reduce volume", and then create new partition from the rest of the space (if I understand it is good), but then I read in Windows Help:
  "When you shrink a partition, all regular files are automatically transferred to the disk to create the new unallocated space. There is no need to reformat the drive to shrink the partition. » ... "If the partition is a raw partition (that is, a lack of a file system) that contains data (for example, a database file)", reducing the partition may destroy the data. ""

  Normally, I have never tested a large part with the C partition, and now I don't know if I would destroy some system files while doing this "shrinkage" and I don't have the CD installation for the system, so I can't fix it if I ruin something.

  Please advise...

  Yes, this is the right way to have more than one partition. You can define what capacity should partition C and any free space can be "convert" to the D partition.

  One last thing: don't forget to create a recovery (DVD or USB) media. It is very important to have recovery image back-up.

• Tecra S11 - what are the two primary partitions for?

  Hello everyone

  I just got myself a new Tecra S11 with Win7 64 and there is one thing that has me littlebit wondered.
  In total, there are four partitions, there are for sure the recovery a (1.46 GB) and the system a (256,38 GB), but then there are also two primary partitions (8.86 and 31.38 GB) without displayed use or file system. There is no unallocated space.

  Can someone tell me what are these two partitions? I want to split the system partition to store my data on a separate, if possible I also want to use that 'unknown' space then ;)

  Besides that: don't worry, I already have recovery DVD.

  Greetings
  Nico

  I put t know why you now have the new structure of the partitions, but the important thing is that you create recovery DVDs and if something goes wrong with the preinstalled recovery image OS or HARD drive you can use DVDs for the installation of the OS.

• Satellite Pro U400 VISTA disk management has 6 primary partitions

  Hi all!

  I have a strange effect on my Toshiba laptop Satellite Pro U400 (but it seems not to be specific to this one that I saw the same symptoms elsewhere, at the same time):

  I had the laptop with a 320 GB drive with recovery-(invisible / "Configuration EISA", 1,46 Go) system (C:, ~ 150 GB) and data (E:, ~ 150 GB) volumes. It's the usual structure of Toshiba,

  pre-installed OS was Vista professional.

  As I plan to install Linux in addition, I have done as a result of preparations:

  Recovery disc Vista created 1.).
  2.) C: shrunk to ~ 100 GB using Vista disk management tool.
  3.) E: shrunk to Go ~ 98 using Vista disk management tool.
  It is suggested that 4.) E: directly behind C: using Parted Magic CD.

  Finally I got a 97 GB of free space at the end of the disc, and everything worked well away. Creating an additional on the free area, Vista disk management, resulted in an extended partition created by Vista. This extended partition contained the extra volume as well as the free space remaining behind.

  To prepare for installing Linux, I've finally created three logical Volumes inside the extended partition with Vista disk management tool.
  After that, I had the following structure of the partition on the disk (indicated by the Vista Disk Manager):

  invisible 1.46 GB, primary
  C:, ~ 100 GB NTFS, primary, active, System
  E:, ~ 98 GB NTFS, primary, data

  ~ 97 GB extended partition, containing:
  2 GB unformatted (planned for Linux swap)
  20 GB unformatted (planned for Linux root "/")
  21 GB unformatted (planned for Linux "/ home")
  Empty remaining 54 GB space

  More on Vista worked properly!

  Recently, I installed OpenSuse 11.1 using the volumes placed within extended partitions (user-specific configuration). The Installation worked correctly. Logical volumes have been formatted to

  2 GB of swap (swap Linux, / dev/sda5)
  20 GB ext3 (Linux root ' / ' on/dev/sda6)
  21 GB unformatted (Linux "/ home" on/dev/sda6)

  during the installation of Linux. Linux and Vista up and running with their scores. If I look at the hard drive with Linux' partitioning tool, I see three main partitions + range, as expected. The scope contains the Linux partitions + empty disk space.

  HOWEVER:
  ========

  If I look at the hard drive with the Vista disk management tool now, I get the following image:

  invisible 1.46 GB, primary
  C:, ~ 100 GB NTFS, primary, active, System
  E:, ~ 98 GB NTFS, primary, data
  2 GB PRIMARY, no format info displayed
  20 GB PRIMARY, no format info displayed
  21 GB PRIMARY, no format info displayed
  Empty remaining 54 GB space

  This means:
  VISTA DISK MANAGMENT ME PRESENT 6 PRIMARY PARTITIONS WITHOUT ANY COMPLAIN
  Although a hard drive on the PC architecture usually only supports maximum 4 primary partitions.

  Issues related to the:

  Have you ever seen a similar behavior?

  Is this a bug of presentation in the Vista disk management tool?

  Or is it a bug in formatting under Linux?

  Is there a solution for this problem?

  At present, the two BONES work very well. However, the disk will be get permanently damaged as soon as I try to create more partitions in the empty space left?

  Sincere greetings and thanks for your comments.

  Girard

  > Have you ever see similar behavior?
  NO.

  > Is this a bug of presentation in the Vista disk management tool?
  I doubt that it is a bug, I think you forgot something.

  As far as I know you can create 4 partitions on the HARD drive and this is the reason why you have the ability to create an extended partition.
  An extended partition can be divided into several logical drives.

  That is why it s wise to create a primary partition for Windows OS for example and an extended partition, which can decompose the in logical drives (partitions) different.

  However, I put t see a problem if everything works properly
