[QUOTE="karmaf16, post: 997715, member: 143652"] I have a MacBook that I just reloaded Leopard and all software back onto it. There is 10GB being consumed by a partition for windows. I use Virtual Box instead of Boot Camp so there is no reason for me to lose that 10 GB. How do I get it back? I've used the Disk Utility, Erase function and that deleted the files so now it is formatted as a Mac Journaled partition. I can unmount it, however I can not delete it. See attached screen shot. I've used Boot Camp Assistant and have gotten 2 error messages depending on whether the partition was mounted or not. See attached screen shots. All of the research I don't so far has pointed to one of these two options but neither seems to be working for me. Guidance please? 10 GB is too much to lose these days.
