Hello, I have a new mac with a bootcamp partition, with Win 7 64 bit on it. The bootcamp partition works fine. I have installed Parallels 5.0.9344, and I cannot add my bootcamp partition to parallels. In fact, no matter what I do, parallels just does not "see" the bootcamp partition. It's as if I do not have one on my mac. Do any of you know what the problem is and how I can fix it ? Because I'm going on an scientific expedition on monday for a few weeks, and I need to be able to open my bootcamp from parallels ! Thanks a lot !
Parallels doesn't show the disk in the pop up menu when you try to create a new hard disk (Configure... -> Hardware -> + -> Hard Disk -> Type: Boot Camp) ? Post your partition info using the following commands in the Terminal.app (replace disk0 with the disk containing your Win 7 partition) Code: diskutil list sudo gpt -r show disk0 sudo gpt -r show -l disk0 sudo fdisk /dev/rdisk0
Solved! Hello, Parallels did not show the bootcamp partition or related options. I found my problem in another thread: http://forum.parallels.com/showthread.php?t=101090&page=1 The problem is easily solved: I had parallels in french, and the latest version in french is build 9344. I installed the latest build in english and the problem disappeared. The problem is explained pretty clearly in the thread mentioned above, but is a little too complicated for me Thanks,
