Jun 13, 2019 Apple today released a new macOS Mojave 10.14.5 Boot camp update, which is designed to address a bug that prevented the creation of a new Boot Camp partition on a iMac or Mac mini with a Fusion Drive. With the SSD failed, I saved the Bootcamp partition but nothing from the Mac OS partition. Plan was to somehow use that img again. Preference is to not have to open my iMac but it's looking more like I'm going to have to (if I want bootcamp). I'm at the point where I can't even load a new bootcamp on a fresh Mojave installation.

Boot Camp is macOS Mojave’s built-in technology that allows you to run Microsoft Windows 10 and (on some Mac models) Windows 7 or 8 on Mojave–capable Macs. If your Mac meets the following requirements, you can run Windows on your Mac (if you so desire):
- A Mojave–capable Mac (of course)
- A hard drive that isn’t already partitioned
- (Optional) A printer (for printing the instructions)
It’s optional ‘cause you could just email them to yourself … .
- A full install copy of Microsoft Windows 7 or newer (Windows 8 Home Premium, Professional, or Ultimate edition or Windows 10)
You really do need a full retail copy of Windows: one that was purchased in a retail box. If your copy of Windows came with your PC, you probably can’t install it in Boot Camp.
To install Windows on your Mac, here are the basic steps:
- Launch the Boot Camp Assistant application, which is in your Utilities folder.
This step creates a partition on your hard drive for your Windows installation. - Install Windows on the new partition.
From now on, you can hold down Option during startup and choose to start up from either the macOS Mojave disk partition or the new Windows partition.
If running Windows on your Mac appeals to you, you may want to check out Parallels Desktop (around $80) or VirtualBox (free). Both programs allow you to run Windows — even older versions like XP and Vista — as well as Linux on your Mac without partitioning your hard drive or restarting every time you want to use Windows. In fact, you can run Mac and Windows programs simultaneously with these products.
One last thing: Apple has a special Boot Camp support page on the web.
Fusion Drive, a storage option on some iMac and Mac mini computers, combines a hard drive and flash storage in a single volume for improved performance and storage capacity. If your Fusion Drive appears as two drives instead of one in the Finder, it's no longer working as a Fusion Drive. This can happen after replacing either drive of your Fusion Drive, or using software to intentionally split them into separate volumes.

You can continue using the two drives independently, or follow these steps to regain the benefits of having the single logical volume of a Fusion Drive.

If you're not sure that your Mac was configured with a Fusion Drive, or that the drive has been split:
- Disconnect any external storage devices from your Mac.
- Choose Apple menu > About This Mac, then click Storage.
- If you see a drive labeled Fusion Drive, your Fusion Drive is working and this article doesn't apply to you.
- If you have a Fusion Drive that has been split, you should see two drives. One of them should be labeled Flash Storage, with a capacity of 24GB, 32GB, or 128GB. The other should be at least 1TB.
