I'm planning on getting rid of the Superdrive in my MBP since it is not working anymore, and installing a 2nd hard drive in there. Now I was going to be splitting this 2 drive into 3 partitions, 2 small and 1 larger. One will be a utility partition, 1 will be Linux, and the other Windows 7. Now my larger hard drive, the one in there now, is going to be OSX only. This one has VMware fusion installed so I can access the other partitions at once if I need to through OSX for something quick. Since I would need to install Windows 7 onto the new partition on the new drive and since I don't have an internal drive, and my model of Mac doesn't support USB connected drives to install operating systems; can VMware fusion pick up the Linux and Windows partitions so I can install their operating systems on without having the physical discs? I'll be making ISOs of the discs I have so I can do this, but would Fusion by able to recognize these partitions?
