I am trying to fix errors on my
MacIntosh HD Data
volume.
I have tried to fix using Disk Utility from normal mode and from recovery mode. Same problem. DI hangs at a certain point and that's it.
I boot into single user mode.
Using df -h
I see that the MacIntosh HD Data
volume is /dev/disk2s1
.
I try to type:
fsck_apfs -y /dev/disk2s1
and I get this:
> error: device is unreadable because you are in single user mode.
I try the same command from normal boot and I get
> error: container /dev/rdisk1 is mounted with write access.
I have done this thousands of times before, from single user mode. This is some Catalina crap.
How do I do that now on Catalina?
