[Solved] Write permission from Mac
Posted: 09 Aug 2015, 23:48
Hey there,
I have a dual boot hackintosh (Mac / Windows) and I'm stuck. I was using TestDisk from Windows and saved new partition settings. I rebooted and now I can only access my Mac OS - Windows hangs when I try to load it.
I want to use TestDisk from Mac but I'm getting 'write error' because I can't unmount the drive I'm currently using. Is there any way I can overwrite the partition while I'm on Mac?
I hope that makes some sense! Here's the current readout on the analyze step:
