Hi!

Thank you for your tutorial.

 

and click on the - minus sign to delete the Partition

 

 

I have a problem with the removal of a Blank partition - never seen a minus sign :-/

I would be grateful for your suggestion, what do I do next, to remove the empty partition, and the best, to combine it with El Capitan.

Is it even possible?

do you have Yosemite installer? 

 

you can load Yosemite installer and then use that disk utility to delete the partition

Thank you for the tip! I did so, as you suggest, 2 minutes and done.

:-)

why on earth would you want to remove the "Recovery" partition?!? especially on 10.11..

That's a good question. I never used the Recovery under Windows, here too I'm not going. I have a small SSD and I feel sorry for these wasted 650Mb.

I don't have tried yet, but i presume that it is like an ordinary installation.

With Recovery partition the installation files are downloaded from Apple servers, so it is very important that Clover has the correct kexts to boot

Fakesmc, nullCpuPowerManagement and Network.

 

See Ya
