Partition is not resizable, you will be prompted if you want to erase. JHFS+), it will be grown in a data-preserving manner, even if a differentįile system is specified (in fact, your file system and volume name parametersĪre both ignored in this case). If "force" is not given, and the first partition has a resizable file system This given range of two or more partitions will be merged into one.Īll partitions in the range, except for the first one, must be unmountable.Īll data on merged partitions other than the first will be lost data on theįirst partition will be lost as well if the "force" argument is given.
Is the starting partition the second disk parameter is the ending partition Merge two or more pre-existing partitions into one.
Usage: diskutil mergePartitions format nameĭiskIdentifier|DeviceNode DiskIdentifier|DeviceNode To merge two partitons I simply ran this command in terminal Sayans-iMac:~ sayanhussain$ diskutil mergePartitions Now what I did ti remove the free space is that I merged both the partitions together Then I once again ran diskutil list, now I was able to see the newly added partiton What I did!įirst I ran diskutil list to view all the active partitions, now I had only on partiton so added a new partiton via DiskUtility I went through this post but it doesn't seems to be linked with my issue as I don't have any (No CoreStorage logical volume groups found - Terminal output for diskutil cs list diskutil list)Īnd when I try to resize the disk via Terminal I get this error: Sayans-iMac:~ sayanhussain$ diskutil resizeVolume disk0s2 RĮrror: -69742: The requested size change for the target disk or a related disk is too small please try a different disk or partition, or make a larger change So basically two issues have arised as a consequence of the corruption and running a custom script for tweaking your mac! The problem is the previous partition created a free space upon removing it and it is not allocated to anyone, now when I try to delete the free space, Disk Utility fails to carry out the opertaion!īoth the partitons also created a public folder, which I don't know much about cause I never created it, now the problem is what should I do with this public folder should I remove it from my system preferences or should I keep it, I don't know what might happen/get deleted if I remove it from my iMac! Now mac has only one partition which is the startup volume. I had two partitions on my mac, both had macOS installed on it as a result both had a recovery partiton, now I deleted one pratition cause it got corrupted due to some script which I ran.
