I need to delete refind but I cannot do it because I bypass it, since I cannot see visible startup disc.
I stopped partition process where I tried to erase Linux partition because of infinite time in the process.
There are no directories /etc/refind.d/
and /boot/efi/EFI/refind
in my system. I am now in Recovery Mode where you cannot see the startup disk in Startup Disk
.
The problem with refind
is that it shows at startup just the Linux partition which is broken. If I click it, the thing goes to grub>
where I already did this based on the thread
grub rescue > ls
(hd0) (hd0,msdos5) (hd0,msdos3) (hd0,msdos2) (hd0,msdos1) (hd1) (hd1,msdos1)
grub rescue > ls (hd0,msdos1) # try to recognize which partition is this
grub rescue > ls (hd0,msdos2) # let's assume this is the linux partition
grub rescue > set root=(hd0,msdos2)
grub rescue > set prefix=(hd0,msdos2)/boot/grub # or wherever grub is installed
grub rescue > insmod normal # if this produced an error, reset root and prefix to something else ..
grub rescue > normal
where I selected the HSF+ disk for the boot. The problem is that this will not bypass refind
.
How can rescue OS X without visible Startup disk and with refind?

My solution was to delete OS X because I did not get help enough fast. I needed my computer. Klanomath's proposal seems to be forward
diskutil list
gpt -r show disk0
in Terminal.app
