Unable to find a partition

[sathyanveshi]

Folks,

I have a MacBook of 120 GB. I utilised Boot Camp utility to parition into 2 equal partitions to install Windows XP. I screwed up somewhere during the XP installation and it partitioned again while installation. The result: I lost my OS X. I re-installed OS X. In the finder I could see only the 60 GB partition. The rest 60 GB is missing.

I tried rebooting hoping it would prompt me to choose the partition but no uch thing happened. Now, I have and can see only 60 GB.

Any help please?

Cheers,
M

Does the missing partition show up in DiskUtility? If so, you may be able to remove that partition and get the space back. Otherwise you may have to reformat the hard drive which will again wipe it, so backup first.
