rage_q3 Posted March 21, 2013 Share Posted March 21, 2013 Hello I accidentally issued a "clean" command using windows "disk part" against the HDD on which MacOSX was installed. Testdisk using "analyse" command recognizes both hdd partitions on that disk but cant write the partition table - "function write_part_mac not implemented" error. Please have a look at the partitions found by testdisk: Unfortunatley, I dont have a working MacOS to try a workaround using pdisk package because if I am not mistaken pdisk is avialable only on MacOS. I was able to burn a bootable USB with Live Knoppix OS which includes "GNU parted 2.3" package. Would you be so kind please and tell me what commands I have to use to restore my partition table to be able to boot to my MacOS? FYI: print command output against that disk: unrecognised disk label Thank you very much for your assistance!

bogdanw Posted March 22, 2013 Share Posted March 22, 2013 I think you should try from Windows. Be sure to run TestDisk with Administrator privileges.

sebus Posted March 22, 2013 Share Posted March 22, 2013 He is running from Windows (easy to see the capture!) - next time pay more attention before replying Link to comment https://www.insanelymac.com/forum/topic/287255-restoring-apple-partition-table/#findComment-1899850 Share on other sites More sharing options...
