Truz Posted November 2, 2011 Share Posted November 2, 2011 Hey there. I had OS X Lion installed and it worked perfectly fine. But I needed an additional Partition of Windows for work and decided to install it on the same hard drive. So I formatted one of the partitions and installed Windows onto that, leaving the Partition on which Lion was installed untouched. Now I am in my Windows but can neither see the partition (well I can see it in list disk using diskpart) nor handle it. It still has the same size and is HFS but I cannot assign a letter to it. Can you tell me how to make me able to boot into the OSX again ? Thank you very much Link to comment https://www.insanelymac.com/forum/topic/271441-i-lost-my-lion/ Share on other sites More sharing options...
Truz Posted November 3, 2011 Author Share Posted November 3, 2011 I now installed Paragon and can even see my Lion partition containing all the files but I do not find a way to boot into OS X. Does anyone have an idea ? When setting the disk to active nothing happens at the startup.

roberdo Posted November 10, 2011 Share Posted November 10, 2011 I really need some help here You have to set the OSX Partition to 'active', then you will be able to start OSX and Win by Chameleon bootloader. Another solution: Install easybcd in windows, add your OSX to the bootloader with this tool and you can choose when booting which OS should run. http://neosmart.net/dl.php?id=1 Link to comment https://www.insanelymac.com/forum/topic/271441-i-lost-my-lion/#findComment-1769400 Share on other sites More sharing options...
