[QUOTE="timetraveller92, post: 1564749, member: 296061"] I had tried to install Windows 8 via Bootcamp but the installation failed. I rebooted and then deleted the BOOTCAMP partition from Disk Utility. But then Bootcamp started giving me errors and when I tried doing a repair with DU it failed again. Finally I read some blogs and websites and found 2 commands and tried it. It asked for root, so I used my restarted, went into Recovery HD -> Terminal and typed these sudo gpt remove -i 1 disk0 sudo gpt add -b 40 -i 1 -s 409600 -t C12A7328-F81F-11D2-BA4B-00A0C93EC93B disk0 I didn't exactly know what these commands did, but found out that my OS X partition has become inaccessible, Totally disappeared. Now I have only access to Recovery HD and my dads Windows laptop (from which I'm posting this post). Could someone tell me how can I bring my Mavericks partition back? [/QUOTE]
