Can I "induct" SL-Server disk/partition to be a Guest OS in Parallels 10?

    I have Parallels 10 running under Mavericks, and I'd like to use my Snow-Leopard Server Hard-Disk/partition as a Guest OS; is that possible?

    I'd like to do this because I'd like to continue using my SL server at times for web-hosting; but at other times I'd like to use the OS as a Guest system to Mavericks so that I can use my FREEHAND on it!

    I've been successful in the past running Parallels 10 with a multi-partition First Disk (Hard Drive #1) and a Bootcamp 2nd Physical Drive. And, actually, I've been able to install other windows disks on the sleds of my Mac Pro and read those too. I have a 3rd Physical Hard drive that contains my Snow-Leopard Server on it... and I'd like to use it as a guest OS precisely like I use BOOTCAMP (meaning - I'd like the option of running that disk either as a boot disk or as a guest OS).

    Please let me know if anyone has accomplished this!

    Hello All, please be informed that Parallels Desktop 10 Update 4 (10.4.0-29337) was released and the issue has been addressed. Please update Parallels Desktop to the latest build. Latest version always available here: http://www.parallels.com/directdownload/pd10/ Please note that Parallels Tools also needs to be updated (Actions > Update Parallels Tools) and let us know how it works. Thanks!
