    Is there any way to boot an existing ext2/ext3 filesystem into a VM? I currently have a BackTrack system installed on a bootable SD card, but I'd like to be able to boot that system directly into Parallels, just as it can boot my BootCamp partition into Parallels. Is there any way to do this? If not, how do we get this added as a feature in the next version of Parallels?

    It is not possible.
    You can submit a feature request in support ticket - go to www.parallels.com/support.
    mark it as FEATURE REQUEST

    I don't find the option 'feature request' anywhere over at support?

    When I try to create a support request I am given 4 options:

    Technical issue...
    Customer Service and Licensing
    Feedback for Parallels support...
    Security Issue...

    In what category do I file a feature request?

    And then, in what subcategory... I've scroll thru them all, I find it a bit hard to fit a Feature Request anywhere

    It is not that important. But pick tech support
