Recovery partition resizing...

OK, something similar has already been asked here, but I have something slightly different.

I want to resize my recovery partition to make it much larger and store data on this subject. Would he then still work as a recovery partition?

Don't, don't. It will stop working. !!!

  • Rebuild the recovery partition

    Hi all

    Since my macbook pro in construction since a backup time machine, I have no recovery partition. Not sure if the recovery of time machine is the cause, or that the guy who has this laptop (work) in front of me he erased accidentally.

    I tried to use the script of "Recovery Partition creator" on several occasions, but it did not work. It becomes very urgent to get the recovery as soon as I'm running into several issues that require me to have the partition:

    • Disk errors on my internal drive that requires a correction
    • Need to encrypt my hard drive
    • Try to resize my disk internal, so I can install El Captain next to my current OS X I just need to test before you lose access to the work of the features (earlier version cannot be installed as he does not like our proxy for example).

    Happy to go all the way to 'clean up' and then to retrieve locks of tiem machine, but no idea how to do things right :-(

    Any ideas?

    I feel that you are not the first user or 'owner' of the MBP.  If this is the case, I suggest the following:

    Back up all your data.

    Erase the HARD drive and start in the recovery of the Internet (OPTION-COMMAND-R) which will connect you to the Apple servers.  Following the directions, you will be able to erase the HARD drive and install the original OSX the MBP came with.  The recovery partition must be created.  (I guess that the MBP is a 2011 late model or newer).

    Install a more recent OSX (as appropriate).

    Reinstall your user data.

    Ciao.

  • Satellite NB550D-109 - recovery partition

    You just bought a NB550D-109.
    Pretty happy with it, but I have a few questions so.
    Is there a reason the recovery partition labled data, is half the size of the drive?

    This partition can be resized to give more storage without compromising the Recovery Wizard?

    Are all the organic quality of Toshiba Utilities, or ones that I don't use can be uninstalled?
    Or should I leave installed and just disable the startup?

    > Is there a reason that the recovery partition, labled data, is half the size of the drive?
    To be honest I don't understand your question. Recovery partition is about 10 GB and recovery image is about 8 GB, so I put t understand what do you mean with half of the size of the disk.
    > This partition can be resized to give more storage without compromising the Recovery Wizard?
    At the moment I have not be able to give you the right answer. Open the disk management option, make a screen shot and expect to see the structure of the partitions. Then, I'll be able to discuss all the partitions.
    For the moment, I can say only one thing: do not change anything. Change the installation of recovery of the structure HARD drive partitions can be cancelled.
    > All the organic quality of Toshiba Utilities, or ones that I don't use can be uninstalled?
    Some of them can be uninstalled but I put t know which of them you don t need.
    Let us know which of them you want to remove the system.

    One last thing: don't make too many experiences before you created the recovery USB drive.
    Please read Toshiba s s user manual and look for info on the installation of recovery and the creation of recovery USB disks.

  • Satellite P855 - need recovery partition properties

    Hello

    as I intend to migrate the HDD to ssd I resized the windows disc 8 and then the toshiba recovery partition after windows system 8, but it seems that this movement has really changed the properties/id of the partition.

    Could you please tell me the properties the ID VALUE of the toshiba recovery partition so I can change it again?
    The size of the partition, the content and everything is untoched, but when I try to open the recovery tool, it says that it cannot find the recovery partition.

    I know I shouldn't mess with partitioning, but I want to change the laptop on a faster drive.

    Thank you very much.

    Nicolas

    Hi Nicolas

    Now it's too late for anything. Structure of the partitions is changed and you cannot get it back to the original state.
    Change SSD HARD drive is not the problem, but your mistake is that you don't l l create USB recovery media or recovery disk.
    After changing the HDD to SSD, you could use this media to reinstall the OS. In this case new recovery partition is created automatically.

    What you need now is the recovery disc for a clean installation of image recovery.

  • Remove the HARD drive recovery Partition

    Hello

    Does anyone know how to remove the recovery Partition HDD? I don't have any use for it as I repeated it CD, as well as images of partition stored on a network drive. I want that space to put a current image of my C: drive, rather than the initial installation.

    When I go to delete a partition or volume I get the errors. Resizing my computer laptop completely bombs with Paragon Disk Manager and I have to reinstall all partitions! Removing sub Vista it says volume is in use and delete may cause unexpected errors.

    If you really want to remove it, you might try Acronis Disk Director Suite. I never had any problems with it. A very good program.

    Furthermore, I think you mean that the Windows recovery environment and that s not a feature of Toshiba.
    Toshiba Recovery is only stored in a folder called HDDRecovery. It s not on a hidden partition.

    However, this good article is maybe interesting for you:

  • Purpose of huge (> 15GB) recovery Partition?

    My recovery partition uses 8,72 GB of used space and has another 6.89 GB of free space. I already have a number of rescue and recovery disks... Will there be an end to the large amount of free space on the recovery partition? As I am with a 160 GB SSD, 6.89 GB of space is an important part of my space that I can use at any given time.

    Thank you all. I already have my recovery disks that I used to install from after that I installed the SSD, as recommended by Lenovo (instead of cloning). I do not fear the Go ~ 9 the recovery partition takes place, just in case I had to lose discs. I was wondering if it would be ok to resize the partition and recover the nearly 7 GB of free space. It seems that the system didn't need to score, so I'll try resizing.

  • Size of the problems after the system partition resizing - are X 201 hard drives using a particular geometry?

    I recently copied my default system hard disk (320 GB / Western Digital) on a larger hard drive (500 GB / Hitachi) which I also ordered through Lenovo.

    Using a disk imager I first copied the old 1:1 the new disk drive. It gave me an exact copy of my original disk, with about 150 GB of space disk unallocated at the end of the training. I then put this copy in the system and it worked very well, I could start and work at it.

    -With the help of Acronis Disk Director 11 - I moved the hidden partition Lenovo restore to the end of the new drive, and then finally I expanded the system partition to fill all the available space before this recovery partition, giving me a system about 430 GB drive.

    These operation seemed to go very well at everything first, but in the end I got an alert that something had gone wrong and now the disk may be corrupted. Strange, I was able to boot from the disk and everything went well in the beginning but in fact - I now have a very weird problem: when you look in the Panel-online-online disk management management system all partitions are located and that I had the intention of size. The recovery partition (~ 17 GB) is at the end and the system partition is indicated as approximately 430GB and about 60% vacuum. Explorer Windows, however, always reports the size of the old partition (~ 280 GB) and only 10% of empty space, while if there is no resizing the partition space taken.

    In other words: different parts of Windows 'see' and report to different partition sizes. Running chkdsk does not resolve the issue.

    I then realized this phenomenon in the Acronis Disk Director forum and some guys Acronis replied, that problems of resizing and therefore also the difference could be due to the fact that IBM/Lenovo uses a geometry to non-standard head of 240 heads instead of 255 heads. ????  I then asked for details and - if possible - instructions - how we could solve this problem, but got no further response so far.

    Any idea what he's talking about? Lenovo indeed uses some non-standard disk or geometry? I would have thought, that the access disk is the disk drivers? Lenovo have to do here? Or BIOS of the device involved here?

    And finally: has anyone some experience with this problem and can give an idea how to solve this problem? I'd really like to * hate * restart everywhere have to reformat the hard drive and reinstall everything again!

    Michael

    Thanks for this info!

    I'll try to get my wrecked HD using the Paragon suggested partitioning program and I guess, I'll also try to get a refund on DiskDirector 11, since the site explicitly, it is fully ready Windows7, which obviously isn't!

  • Conversion to logical recovery partition - is it logical?

    Hello everyone,

    My new dv6-6070se with win7 64 bit has 4 primary partitions. So I can't create new partitions.

    But if I delete or convert one of them to the logic, it will be possible to create new partitions.

    I already have a DVD series of recovery with the Recovery Manager. What happens if I convert the recovery partition (~ 15 GB) of elementary logic. Does this affect the usefulness of this partition as a source of recovery?

    And likewise, I have 2 other primary partitions, HP (99 MB) tools and SYSTEM (199 MB). How important are they?

    Any suggestions?

    Thanks to advnce.

    If you created the recovery DVD popular with those non-rewritable, and then use the Recovery Manager to delete the recovery partition, use Windows disk management. After he is gone then you can create you own new partition.

    If you were to change the logic it would need anyway. Leave it alone ' system', if you delete that or that you resize, your machine unbootable.

    HP tools has diagnostic applications in there to test your hard drive, memory, save a corrupted flash BIOS which is best left alone etc.

    You can access by typing immediately press f2 at startup upward.

  • Published: Recovery Partition do not have day

    I posted this under Yosemite, instead of El Capitan - very sorry.

  • Cannot turn on FileVault 2: "some disc formats do not support the recovery partition" version of the OS - 10.11.4

    Hello

    I went to turn on FileVault encryption for the first time, and when I click on restart (by FileVault guests) I got a error message that says "FileVault can not be enabled for the drive. Some disc formats do not support the required encryption recovery partition. To use encryption, reinstall this version of Mac OS x on a reformatted drive. »

    I found an article from apple support for this problem with El Capitan who recommended first aid running in disk utility.  I tried this but then received the same error message.

    a little history:

    -Mac OS 10.11.4 installed running on the brand/model ADATA SP 550 SSD

    -This SSD is a 250 GB drive partitioned into two, with one of these partitions being my OS

    -J' ran this BONE of a Bay external thunderbolt

    -ssd is formatted as HFS journaling +.

    I am really confused about this error message and couldn't find much online about it.  I use a fairly recent OS install.  I installed the operating system clean and made all my preferences and install so that I can encrypt and then back up this pristine OS environment in time machine so that I could always go back to it on the line in case where things are bunk too upward.  I'd have to install yet another OS to clean and do all my long software installs and system preferences settings... SIP.  I don't know if that makes a difference, but this version of the OS that I have been cloned by superduper to this SSD partition.

    What is the brand of SSD that I?  Might that matter?  I appreciate all the comments.  I'm really scratching my head...

    Thank you very much

    To enable FileVault, you need a recovery partition, which you don't have. You can create one by reinstalling OS X.

    If you do not already have a current backup, please backup all data, and then reinstall the OS. * you don't need to erase the boot volume, and you won't need the backup unless something is wrong. If the system has been upgraded an earlier version of Mac OS X, you may need to the Apple ID and password to use.

    There are ways to back up a computer that is not fully functional. Ask if you need advice.

    If you installed the runtime Java distributed by Apple, and still need, you will need to reinstall it. It goes the same for Xcode. All other data will be preserved.

    Related support article refers to OS X 10.11 ("El Capitan"), but the procedure is the same for OS X 10.7 ("Lion") and later versions.
