[QUOTE="mac880104, post: 545660, member: 35345"] I just bought a new 24" iMac. I upgraded to Leopard and when I ran the boot camp assistant (partitioned 120 GB) for windows (I am still angry I even did so). At any rate, it said "you can't install on this... NTFS) or something like that... so I chose the "erase" option for the 120 GB partition... after windows was done installing... well, my NEW iMac would only start in WINDOWS.... So, I put the Leopard OS install disk in and restarted holding "C" and I'm now reinstalling onto the OS X space (380 GB) that was left after running Boot Camp assistant. My question is this, (hoping that it the new install will work) how do I recover that 120 GB partition... I tried parallels on my macbook pro and hated it... However, I have decided that I will NO LONGER use anything related to Windows on any of my Macs... Thanks in advance for the help! [/QUOTE]
