OS X Partition Disappeared
Hi guys, I need your help.
Following this guide I've already did a Fresh Install and a update from 10.7.3 with two Probooks 4530s (XU015UT) here.
I've had success on these two installations, but today I've tried to update a third one Probook. All of these three are the same model and bios (XU015UT, F09 bios).
This third one was installed with Lion 10.7.3 and fully functional as the second one, same everything. Also they are dual booted with Windows 7, the HD is configured to GUID to work fine with OS X.
So I've booted from my Installer and installed over the Mac partition, without doing anything in Disk Utility, as the guide says.
The installation took about 30 minutes. After reboot the OS X partition has disappeared from Chimera. Neither the USB Chimera or my default Chimera are showing the OS X partition. They are showing only Windows 7 or USB. OS X has totally disappeared and can't be booted.
So I've booted again in the USB Installer and it detects my OS X partition. I've tried installing ML over the partition again, same problem.
The Installer shows my OS X partition as 10.8 installed, but I can't boot it.
Also, in Windows 7, the MacDrive shows my OS X partition with everything installed and my files.
I really can't install it from scratch again, please guys, I need help.
So, anybody knows how to make it bootable and appear in Chimera?
