Cannot partition w/ Boot Camp Assistant on macOS Mojave
The problem is called overallocation. The following helped me to fix it on Mojave APFS:
Please note, there is a lot of posts out there telling you to do fsck
. If you are on APFS you need to do fsck_apfs
instead. This is what made the difference for me.
- Shut down your Mac.
- Start and hold Cmd-S to boot into single user mode.
- Run
fsck_apfs -o
- It will ask you to confirm, type in y and press Enter.
- When finished (up to 3 minutes) type
reboot
and press Enter.
After trying everything I could find, this finally worked.
I also ran fsck_apfs -n -l
before I ran fsck_apfs -o
but I don't think that made any difference.
As I watched the results it produced this line:
Overallocation detected on Main device
And then it did:
Fix overallocation
The secret trick was running fsck_apfs -o -y
. 🤷🏻♂️
I had the same problem , i did reinstall mac os (Mojave) but problem not resolved. Finally i solved using this.
Restart your mac and Pressed
Command + S
to boot into single user mode.Type fsck_apfs -y /dev/disk0s2 and hit enter
If you can see some questions type y and hit enter
After all you can see like as appear OK
-
Type reboot and hit enter
your problem is solved !
