Bielack Posted October 5, 2015 Share Posted October 5, 2015 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? Link to comment https://www.insanelymac.com/forum/topic/308427-remove-el-capitan-recovery-partition/#findComment-2173727 Share on other sites More sharing options...
joe75 Posted October 5, 2015 Share Posted October 5, 2015 why on earth would you want to remove the "Recovery" partition?!? especially on 10.11.. 1 Link to comment https://www.insanelymac.com/forum/topic/308427-remove-el-capitan-recovery-partition/#findComment-2173765 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bielack Posted October 5, 2015 Share Posted October 5, 2015 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. 1 Link to comment https://www.insanelymac.com/forum/topic/308427-remove-el-capitan-recovery-partition/#findComment-2173777 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dyolp Posted October 8, 2015 Share Posted October 8, 2015 Hello, I installed El Capitan on my Hack and I see also Recovery Partition in the boot. What's the utility of the Recovery Partition ? Will it function like a real MAc ? Thank you Link to comment https://www.insanelymac.com/forum/topic/308427-remove-el-capitan-recovery-partition/#findComment-2175033 Share on other sites More sharing options...
jperkins909 Posted October 8, 2015 Share Posted October 8, 2015 I'm thinking the ability to recover is more useful than an extra 650mb.

PippoX0 Posted October 8, 2015 Share Posted October 8, 2015 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.

jperkins909 Posted October 8, 2015 Share Posted October 8, 2015 Could you please explain how to recover under Hackintosh ? Thank you Well personally I clone the OS partition using superduper as I find it quicker. But you would boot from recovery HD in clover and restore from time machine backup or reinstall from app store. https://support.apple.com/en-us/HT201314 Link to comment https://www.insanelymac.com/forum/topic/308427-remove-el-capitan-recovery-partition/#findComment-2175184 Share on other sites More sharing options...
