Mac – Tried to install boot camp and now can’t get into the Mac OS hard drive

bootcamphard drivemac

So I installed boot camp and then couldn’t get windows to boot. So I ran a program called “gdisk” which I must have given the wrong instructions to.

Now I can’t access my Mac OS hard drive, but it looks like the data is still there in disk0. I have attached a picture of my “diskutil list” from recovery mode. Can anyone help me get it back to the right parameters?

The partition information for macOS appears to be stored in the MBR partition table. You will need to manually copy the values from this table to a newly created GUID Partition Table (GPT).

  1. Boot to Internet Recovery mode.
  2. Open a Terminal application window.

  3. Use command below to printout the values in the MBR table.

    fdisk /dev/disk0
  4. Use the gpt command to create a GPT with the partition entries.

I would give more detailed instructions, but I would first need to see the output from fdisk.
