Hi there,

 

I recently downloaded the 10.4.4 patched DVD, I then used the ppf patch to bring this up to 10.4.5, without any problem (am I clever or what?)

 

Heres the thing...

 

I created a new VM within VMWare Workstation 5.5 and successfully managed to boot up off the DVD via the Daemon Tools virtual drive.

 

However...

 

When prompted for a drive to install to there are none available within the OS X installer? I have not created a fancy drive I have merely created a virtual disk within VMWare.

 

Is there a guide on this or is my motherboard not supported? (I though VMWare would negate this?)

 

A n00b in need is a n00b indeed!

 

Thanks chaps...

You probably need to open Disk Utility from the top menu and format (aka 'erase') the VMWare partition.
