[QUOTE="kkrog, post: 360018, member: 25738"] Boot Camp needs a continuos space on the drive to be able to create a windows partition. If you install Boot Camp on a fresh Mac OS X install, there is no problem, and I imagine backing up and restoring back to the main drive will compact all files to the begining of the harddrive. You could also use iDefrag to compact the data for you. It will however need to be run from a second drive, off a CD (buying the app lets you download CDmaker) or from another Mac in Firewire Targetdisk mode. Cheers Klaus [/QUOTE]
