First time installation => Failed to configure the Boot Camp partition's hard drive.

Hi All,

First time user here, unfortunately already struggling.

I am using a MBP, running OS X 10.6.6 with a Boot Camp partition running Windows 7. This setup has been running fot the last 6 months but I wanted to install Parallels to access some Windows applications from the Mac side.

So:
1) Downloaded and installed the latest version of Parallels 6.
2) Started the New Virtual Machine Assistant
3) Selected "Install from: Boot Camp partition"
4) On next screen left all default values and selected create.
5) Then I get the attached error message.

I am sure I am missing something obvious here. Unfortunately some google search did not help, hence I am turing to you.

Many thanks, Laurent
