Sorry if this is posted elsewhere but when I try to install boot camp (mac Mini) I get a failure message saying the partition cannot be created, use disk utility to verify permissions etc. I run the disk utility and it still fails. Any ideas? Thanks

Have you tried running disk utility from the OS X DVD that came with your mini? If you have any disk errors on your boot partition, this is the only way to repair them.

Any ramblings are entirely my own, and do not represent those of my employers, coworkers, friends, or species
