Hey all, Hopefully someone could provide some info on this as I have not seen a lot of trouble shooting tips for Transporter (Import BootCamp) option. I have installed Parallels 6 on 2 machines that previously had version 4 installed. Ater the upgrade process, I wanted to create a virtual image for the Boot Camp partition we have been using. I tried the Import BootCamp option and it went through all the way to end and crashed giving a very general error. At this point, I did some standard troubleshooting. On the BootCamp partition, I update all the updates for service pack 2, defragged, and deleted anything that wasnt needed. Once back in OSX, with the VM shut down I ran a repair permissions on the main OSX drive, and Repair drive on the BootCamp partition. I ran the import again, and the same exact error at the same point. It proceeds to the end then when it looks like its going to just finish up the file I get the error again. As I stated, I have 2 machines I was upgrading. Make a long story short, I repeated the steps above on the second machine and get the same error. I dont know what to do at this point. Hopefully someone could be of assistance.

Hi sorry for very long delay. The solution is absent at this moment. Problem report from ArnaudH contains message about i/o error (write() failed!: 5), but I can't find reason. Please set detailed logging (Parallels Desktop menu -> Preferences -> Advanced -> Troubleshooting), try to import bootcamp again and after fail generate new problem report (Help -> Report a problem). Thanks.
