Dear Parallels Team,

It is possible to run Linux, Windows from physical partition, but anytime I add OSX partition and try to launch VM I get This BootCamp partition is not supported.. It there any trick, workaround to run OSX guest installed on physical partition. The reason being is that I have Yosemite now installed on external HDD so I can reboot to it, but I wish to use it also as VM so I can run it from Mavericks for quick tests.

Any tips?
 
hm this is very unfortunate and a feature that should be built into one of the next updates.
For example I have the need for an OS X Lion installation for packaging but the Mac mini I have doesn't support Lion anymore.
With Parallels running from a physical OS X partition I could maintain my Lion System via Parallels Desktop and use the Primary OS to create packages from that Lion partition.
