    I want to get my second NTFS partition recognized by Parallels.

    I have a single physical drive, with 3 volume partitions:

    disk0s2, disk0s3, & disk0s4

    My $diskutil output is attached as a JPEG.

    disk0s4 is my BOOTCAMP partition
    disk0s3 is a second NTFS partition

    disk0s3 mounts as d: in BOOTCAMP (with Windows XP Pro SP2)

    It works great in BOOTCAMP. I am running Leopard 10.5.6

    When I run Parallels Desktop 4.0 (build 4.0.3810), it does not recognize disk0s4. It says that it is "RAW" (not formatted). I DO NOT want to mount it as a "Shared Folder". I want it to mount as an NTFS volume. I even tried reformatting it inside parallels, and that fails.

    I am also running NTFS-3G (ver. 0.9.7) and MacFUSE (ver. 2.0.3). Thus both volumes mount in BOOTCAMP and on the Mac desktop.

    Is there a more elegant way to get parallels to recognize disk0s3 instead of mounting it as a Shared Folder? Seems to me that if it works in BOOTCAMP, it should work in Parallels.
