Parallels 9.0 cannot resize or make hard disk > 64GB on an OSX guest ?

How can I setup an OSX guest with a hard disk any bigger than 64GB?

It does not let me change size before VM setup. After setup I cannot use VM settings to edit the 64GB expanding disk hard disk.

I attached screen shot below:

• The size spin-box and slider are disabled.
• I cannot check "Resize file system"

Parallels 9.0.24237

Solved.

1 - Edit VM configuration before beginning the install.
2 - Delete hard disk ( that Parallels refuses to allow you to edit for some stupid reason. )
3 - Add new hard disk and edit to the desired size. I set hard disk to 250GB expanding.
4 - Boot and begin install
