    I am hoping that you can help me. I have an HP Z400 running Win 10 and El Capitan on separate drives. I used Enoch Chameleon to install OS X. Now my bootloader is broken or corrupted and I cannot boot to El Capitan. I no longer have the USB installer so cannot boot from that. Is there any way I can repair the bootloader? I do not have access to a Mac. Thanking you

    I do not think that you can do it without access to Mac.

    USB are dead cheap, so find a friend with a Mac (or download off the net Vmware image & run in Vmware Workstation), create one (and keep safe for the future) & fix the bootloader

    I was able to create a Yosemite install USB using Transmac and a DMG file. It is possible to do this without having access to a MAC.

    Yes, TM will write DMG, but such USB will not be Hack bootable
    That also depends on MBR vs EFI
