    Hey guys!

    I had some trouble installing Parallels with my Bootcamp-Partition so I uninstalled everything, started over new and finally got it working!

    My configuration:
    Mac Pro 2x2.66 GHz Intel Xeon with 4 GB RAM
    Mac OS X 10.5.1 running
    Parallels Desktop 3.0 for Mac Build 5582
    and Boot Camp Windows XP SP2

    So far so good, it really seems to be working quite well.

    Now, here's my problem: My Mac OSX partition is about 370 GB big. I'd like to split that into two partitions one with 270 and the other with 100 GBs. I know that Bootcamp has trouble with more than two partitions though. And I'm not really sure what's going to happen to my Parallels Bootcamp-VM if I just add a partition in my hdd utility!

    Can you tell me if that's going to work with no problem or whether or not I have to edit something before adding a new partition?! Thank you so much for your information!

    Greets,
    Oli

    PS: I'm sorry if there's a thread for this already. I searched the forum and couldn't quite find something. So please just send me the link to the thread :)
