Mediakit Reports error

I have just recently deleted my ubuntu partition on my mac hard drive and now i cannot get the space back on to my harddrive.
I have already tried to recreated that partition and then remove and hoping that it would work, but it didn't. I have also
completely erased my entire hd and started from scratch (I orginally had lion software), but now I keep getting an error message that says mediakit
reports partition map too small. Now, I don't know what to do with it. I have all of my stuff back up on time machine and i have another external with just my files with no time machine.
I really need help.

This does indeed seem to be the problem.
Before you replied I RMAed the Seagate disk assuming it to be faulty, because, well, 4k is a multiple of 512b and all. Today, my new WesternDigital disk arrived - it gives the IDENTICAL error. The changes of two disks from two vendors both being faulty seem low, so I think we can safely say OS X has a nasty security bug that has been languishing for some time.
It seems the only way I can protect my backups is to use 3rd party softeware, or to find an old 2TB disk somewhere that still has 512b blocks rather than 4k blocks.
Hopefully Apple get this bug fixed soon, and hopefully others will find this post when they google the error message and at least understand that their disk is probably fine.

  • Install error : disk cannot be used to start up your computer [or] MediaKit reports partition (Map) too small

    Greetings,
    I am aware that this problem has been discussed, but in long and vague discussions that I had to sift deeply to find an answer. Therefore I am posting a clear message, as this problem can be very troublesome for someone who just received a Mac OS installation disk and cannot install it.
    Situation : you cannot install/update your new system because the installer does not consider your volume.
    Error message : this disk cannot be used to start up your computer.
    Version française : Ce disque ne peut pas être configuré pour démarrer votre ordinateur.
    Also discussed below error: "MediaKit reports partition (Map) too small"
    Note : although this occurred with a Snow Leopard (10.6) install DVD, it can alo occur with Lion (10.7) according to discussions on Apple web site.
    IF YOUR CONDITIONS ARE AS FOLLOWS :
    - You are using an official Apple installation DVD of Mac OS 10.6 (Snow Leopard) [or 10.7 Lion] or an official download/upgrade of those systems.
    - Your main Mac partition scheme is in GUID as it should be (check with Disk Utility). That partition contains a Mac system that can start-up.
    - Your volume format is: Mac OS Extended (journaled) [the format should not be Case Sensitive.]
    - You have the hardware requirements to install Mac OS 10.6 (Intel processor; internal or external DVD drive or a linked DVD drive; 1 GB of RAM; a screen controlled by your computer graphics card; at least 5 GB space on the hard disk or 7 GB if you install all components).
    - Using Disk Utility, you of course tried the disk Repair Tool and the Repair Permissions tool.
    - Your hard disk does not have a file called Backups.backupdb (if it does, this means Time Machine has once used this hard disk for its back-ups). Anyhow, if it were the case, the installation would give a different error message (with the word TimeMachine). This file may block the installation: Apple Support suggest to place it in the garbage, *without* deleting it, and placing it back on the disk later. Mind you, if you do not use this hard disk as such to save your Time Machine back-ups, you can simply delete this file.
    HOW TO FIX :
    1. Boot with the 10.6 install DVD (Tip: you can either select Mac 10.6 as the boot DVD in your Start-up Preferences or simply press down c during the start-up).
    2. Above the install screen, you have a Utilities tab from where you can run Disk Utility. Select your hard disk and select the Partition tab. Resize the primary Mac partition (don't add a new one) by decreasing it by about 5 GB.
    It will look like this http://i.imgur.com/jHTbr.jpg
    ( That image shows only one partition, but the same principle applies even if you have two or more partitions on your disk.)
    Also see the official Apple how to: http://support.apple.com/kb/TS3926
    Version française: http://support.apple.com/kb/TS3926?viewlocale=fr_FR
    3. Commit the change by hitting "Apply"
    3.b. If you get the error "MediaKit reports partition (Map) too small", this is a rare error where the partition that follows (for example Bootcamp) is slightly overlapping your main Mac partition. You will need to reduce that other following partition. Once you have reduced the other partition, you will probably need to return to step 2 and 3 and try again.
    [ For example, in my case, I had resized my Bootcamp with CampTune software and it would seem that the file system ended-up somehow larger than the actual partition container. I simply asked CampTune to reduce the partition a bit (barely 2 GB) and that fixed it.]
    4. Reboot, again into the 10.6 install DVD.
    5. You can then install 10.6.
    6. Once 10.6 is installed, use the Disk Utility on the desktop (you can boot into the primary HD at this point) to resize the primary partition back to its original or maximum size.

    When I click on the icon for this drive, the warning message below states "Mac OS X cannot be installed on 'iMac HD', because this disk cannot be used to start up your computer." Obviously that's not true, since that's where the OS is installed.
    How did you partition this drive, if you did that? Does it contain start up or utility partitions for any other OS (for instance Linux)? There have been reports that the "cannot be used to start up your computer" message will appear if a third party utility was used to create a 'triple boot' system or such, apparently because SL is picky about the format GUID partition scheme table info & how partitions are allocated space on the drive by other formatting/partition methods.
    For some users with these partitions, the fix has been as simple as "tickling" (slightly changing) the partition size of some partition with Disk Utility, which apparently updates the GUID partition scheme table info so that the SL installer accepts it as safe to use with SL.( In this sense, the message may be trying to say the installer thinks the disk can't be used to reliably start up your computer with SL, not in general.)
    See the discussions topic Cannot install Snow Leopard over 10.5.8 for more about this.

  • Mirrored RAID:  MediaKit reports block size error

    I am trying to create a 2nd set up backup drives for my photos.  I have two new iomega 2TB drives, which look essentially identical to drives I'm currently using as my primary backups as a mirrored RAID set.
    I can start the process with freshly erased and reformatted drives (with the default mac format, extended, journaled, unencrypted, not case-sensitive).  And after a minute or three, I see
    "MediaKit reports block size error, usually caused by not being a multiple of 512."
    The RAID options are Mirrored RAID, Mac extended journaled, and options settings are default.
    I see several series of posts with complaints about encrypting RAIDs and disk block sizes, but not unencrypted errors.   I actually started out trying to do this with the 2006 MBP running 10.6.8 and got a different error:  "POSIX reports:  the operation couldn't be completed. Operation not permitted."  I wasn't sure whether the 2TB RAID I already have was set up iwth the older or newer computer--it was definitely before I put Lion on this one--so I tried this one and now have a different error.
    Any idea what the problem might be? 

    Update:  I spent some time on the phone with an Apple support RAID expert, and couldn't figure out what the error was; we couldn't bypass it by playing with partitions on the drives, or any of another couple of manuevers that I've already forgotten.  He noted that his own searches were showing a lot of mentions of similar problems but only with Iomega drives, and he was finding the same links I found earlier about problems creating encrypted drives.  Now trying to decide if it's worth throwing more good money after bad for a call with Iomega support, and waiting to see if the iomega forum is at all helpful.

  • Disk Utility error "Mediakit reports partition map too small. 3TB

    So I have a Mac Pro with a 3TB inside, but Snow Leopard won't recognize the whole 3TB. I can format it, but it only allows 801.23 GB. The remaining space is left as Free Space. When I try to resize the Volume, I get this:
    I get this error: " Partition failed with an error." MediaKit reports partition (map) too small.
    Can someone help me find a way to utilize the 3TB as it was intended to?

    Problem:
    1. I put MacPro into Target Disk Mode to mount to my 2011 MacBook Pro. Disk Utility on MBP would only see 800GB.
    Solution:
    2. Booted the SL CD on the MacPro and ran Disk Utility from there. In the partitions tab, I chose 1 partition, and hit apply.
    3. "could not unmount disk."
    4. So I tried to partition it again, and it worked this time. 3TB Available.
    5. I then booted the MacPro using an external HD with OSX on it to run CarbonCopyCloner to reimage my backup.
    I hope this helps anyone else with the same problem.

  • Hello, I am trying to upgrade to yosemite, but I get the "disk cannot be used to startup your computer" error. Resizing the partition does not work, I get the error "MediaKit reports no such partition" probably because I installed linux in dual boot

    Hello, I am trying to upgrade my macbook pro to yosemite, but I get the "disk cannot be used to startup your computer" error.
    Resizing the partition does not work for me and I get the error "MediaKit reports no such partition" probably because I installed linux in dual boot and the disk manager is lost.
    Anyway to tell the yosemite installer that it should not pay attention whether the disk is bootable or not ?
    If I am doomed, any way to delete the installer and downloaded OS from my hard drive ?
    Thanks for your help

    As usual, the Linux installer wrecked the partition table. You would have to boot from your OS X installation disc and repartition. Doing so will of course remove all data from the drive, so you must back up first if you haven't already done so.

  • "MediaKit reports block size error" when formatting drive

    I got a new 2TB hard drive, and I'm trying to format it as HFS+ journaled case sensitive encrypted, each time I try I get the following error:
    "MediaKit reports block size error, usually caused by not being a multiple of 512."
    This is a brand new drive, it has a GUID partition map with one partition, that was created by Disk Utility, and the disk passed a full hardware scan from Drive Genius.
    Normally when I get an error I can google it, but this particular error only gives me links to RAID problems, and I'm not doing anything with RAID.
    What determines the block size? I did not get an option to set it anywhere that I could see.
    How do I fix this error and get my drive encrypted?

    This does indeed seem to be the problem.
    Before you replied I RMAed the Seagate disk assuming it to be faulty, because, well, 4k is a multiple of 512b and all. Today, my new WesternDigital disk arrived - it gives the IDENTICAL error.

    Hopefully Apple get this bug fixed soon, and hopefully others will find this post when they google the error message and at least understand that their disk is probably fine.

  • Disk Utility: MediaKit reports no such partition

    What is up with my disk?
    On my brand new mac mini, I played around with resizing partitions in Disk Utility, it worked fine, and I eventually returned it to the original single-partition state.
    Then, I ran boot camp, and told it to create a 10 GB partition.
    Then, I installed Linux (64-bit Ubuntu) -- from the Linux installer I deleted the windows partition, and a zero-size partition before it, and put Linux swap and ext3 partitions in that space.
    Now, from the mac side, if I try to shrink the boot partition again, I get the error "MediaKit reports no such partition".
    Help? One potentially related anomaly is that Disk Utility shows my Linux ext3 partition format as "MS-DOS (FAT)" but the "fdisk" command correctly lists it as "Linux files*"
    Another disturbing thing is that if I type "sudo pdisk" on the Macintosh command line, and give the 'L' command to list partitions on all disks, pdisk exits with the error "Floating point exception"

    It doesn't sound like you've actually tried reformatting the entire drive, just resizing partitions. There is absolutely no reason why mountability should enter into the picture at all since you can't format a drive if any volumes are mounted.

  • IF Condition in a PL/SQL Script give a report error.

    Hello, I’m German and I hope you can unterstand my Question.
    First, I work with the HTML DB Version 1.6.0.0.0.87 and the Oracle Version 9.2.0.6.

    The report get a Error “report error: ORA-1403: no data found”. If I copy the printet sql String in a new Report Region with SQL String, the Report is OK. When I write IF(true) instead of IF( Condition) the Report is OK, too.
    I try ist with Varibalen V(‘name‘) and with :name. It’s always the same problem. I can’t use IF-THEN-Else Conditions in a Script.
    Please help me and say me what is the problem???
    Thanks,

    Hi Simona,
    In the sql region below the region source see that you have " Use Generic Column Names (parse query at runtime only)" check and not " Use Query-Specific Column Names and Validate Query".
    This error you usually get when you have a mismatch in your report heading.

  • Report error:ORA-06502: PL/SQL: numeric or value error: character string bu

    We face the above error in HTMLDB (APEX) application Ver 3.1.0. This occurs when we try to display more number of rows/records in drop-down list (LOV in tabular forms). We are able to display 200 records in LOV. When the list of records exceeds 230, we face the below error
    report error:ORA-06502: PL/SQL: numeric or value error: character string buffer too small
    the values listed in LOV are from tables (one of the columns in table)
    Could anyone give us a solution?

    Hi
    As you are using a tabular form, you could actually do the following:
    1 - In the tabular form column's attributes, set the following:
    Display as: Select List (query based on LOV)
    Display extra values: Yes
    List of values definition: SELECT null d, null r FROM DUAL
    2 - Add a new page item and set it to generate your select list
    3 - Create an HTML region with no template and use the following for its source:
    &lt;script type="text/javascript"&gt;
    function loadList(c, l)
    var s = document.getElementsByName(c);
    var lItem = document.getElementById(l);
    var lLength = lItem.options.length;
    var k;

    for (k = 0; k &lt; s.length; k++)
    z = s[k];
    v = z.value;
    z.options.length = 0;
    for (j = 0; j &lt; lLength; j++)
    o = new Option()
    o.value = lItem[j].value;
    o.text = lItem[j].text;
    z.options[j] = o;
    z.value = v;
    if (z.selectedIndex == -1)
    z.selectedIndex = 0;
    loadList("f05", "P1_MGR");
    &lt;/script&gt;
    (Change "f05" and "P1_MGR" as appropriate to your column and your new page item respectively)
    Now, when you load the page, the select list contains a null entry plus the entry already on the database. The javascript kicks in automatically, loops through every entry in the "f05" column, copies the existing value, replaces the select list with the new page item version and sets its value to the copied value.
    Your new page item could be in a DIV tag that has a style of "display:none" to hide it from view.

  • Report error: ORA-06502: PL/SQL: numeric or value error: NULL index table k

    Hi everybody,
    I have two Distinct Databases on two distinct servers. (Oracle Ent. Release 10.2.0.3.0 on AIX 5.3). After I install the latest patch last week, One of the APEX installation has some problems on Home>Application Builder Page. The error message is very random and
    report error:
    ORA-06502: PL/SQL: numeric or value error: NULL index table key value.
    When i change the view (details to icons), everything goes to normal. This error message is reflected some of the pages (report region) of some of my applications randomly. When it appears in a report region, i deselect the order method of the region, the result is normal.
    But the other APEX application on the other instance has no problem. It is a bug? or Should i re-install the APEX instance?
    Thank you for your interest?

    No, but we have a reproducible test case now so we're working on it. See ORA-06502: PL/SQL: numeric or value error: NULL index table key value

  • PL/SQL function body returning SQL - report error:ORA-01403: no data found

    Hi,
    I am working on Application Express 4.0.2.00.06, and 11G database.
    I have a problem with classic report area of type - PL/SQL function body returning SQL query. Query works if I define region area as - Use Generic Column Names (parse query at runtime only), and does not when I define it - Use Query-Specific Column Names and Validate Query.
    I am getting error:
    report error:ORA-01403: no data found
    This is my query that is returned from function, and displayed with htp.p, and it works ok and returns data in SQL Developer and SQL Workshop (in Apex).

    As you can see, I even tried with workaround that I found on the previous post on the forum, and that is to put /* select 1 from dual */ to start query.
    Any help would be appriciated.
