    When I try to setup a new Virtual machine using the Parallels wizard, it does not give me an option to install from bootcamp.

    I have followed the steps in this article... http://kb.parallels.com/en/116235

    however when I get to the step where it says:
    From the Source drop-down list choose your physical Boot Camp partition
    there is no Boot Camp partition shown.

    yes I can see Boot camp in the disk utility

    It's obvious that even with the steps on the resolution, the bootcamp partition cannot be found when we are choosing the 'hard disk1'
