    hello,


    I try attach bootcamp partition to VM as second disk, but after boot start Parallels tools installation.
    I do not need Parallels on bootcamp it was shoving info about reactivation and this I really do not need because this way I will soon out of limits....

    Is is possible simple connect bootcamp partition as data disk. Parallels tools is already installed on VM. Bootcam was not disabled in boot order but was not first boot device.

    thx

    Yes it is possible, please make sure that you are running Parallels Desktop version 4 build 3540, just add Hard Disk and select Boot Camp

    Yes, build is 3540, but Parallels tools is still installing on it....
    adding BootCamp as second drive in configuration menu take long time (comparing with adding disk from other VM), seems like bootcamp is prepared to install parallels tools after start...
