Restore Bootcamp/Windows from step #3 to the now Yosemite machine. BA does extra work with a Hybrid MBR which conflicts with a Winclone restore.ħ. This is done via Disk Utility (not Bootcamp Assistant). Create a FAT32 partition on Yosemite machine which is about 4-8GB larger than the size of the original Bootcamp/Windows. Use Bootcamp Assistant on the pre-Yosemite machine and remove Bootcamp/Windows.Ħ. Winclone supports Finder drag-and-drop to make such copies. Make a second copy on an external disk for safekeeping. Create a Winclone image of every Bootcamp/Windows installation that you want to run on Yosemite, on a non-Yosemite machine. It is probably the best USD29.99 you will spend on a non-Apple product, if you are a Windows user on a Mac.ģ. An EFI installation is supported on UEFI models, which are typical late 2013+ Macs.Ģ. Your GPT should have at least 4, most likely 5 entries (EFI/ESP, OSX, Recovery HD, MSR, MSD) for an EFI installation. If you see more than one entry (usually four entries), then you are using a Hybrid MBR, if you see a single entry, then it is an EFI installation and is on a pure GPT disk. Check if you are using a traditional Bootcamp windows using sudo fdisk /dev/diskN (where N is your Bootcamp disk).
#WINCLONE FOR MAC OS 10.9.5 INSTALL#
But I would like to have all of my apple computers on the same version of OS without having to "Nuke and Pave"? How do I keep my windows install in bootcamp? I found a very knowledgable person on another thread helping people after the fact. I think I saw a post from you stating that Apple may eventually fix the destruction of bootcamp after upgrading to Yosemite in a later update. Especially when you reach the "limit" of times that you are allowed to install after a disk crash etc. Windows installs can be rather challanging. I really don't want to go that direction again.
I ended up doing the "Nuke and Pave" option.
#WINCLONE FOR MAC OS 10.9.5 UPGRADE#
My experience of the upgrade process not being as straight foreword as it should be was going from Mountain Lion to Mavericks. I am starting this thread in an effort to help others with upgrading Yosemite OS with a bootcamp Windows partition.
