Crash during XP install via Bootcamp

The other day, I was installing XP onto my MB, via Bootcamp, and it crashed in the middle.

I was going to give XP 18 gigs of my HDD, because I wasn't planning to do much with it, other than surf the net and go on AIM. I have a tiny problem though. Halfway through the installation, my Mac crashed, and now I have 18 gigs gone into no where.

Disk Utility didn't help much, and when I tried booting into the disk image, G Parted, it didn't show any partitions on my HDD.


Is there a fix, or should I reformat, and re-install?

Run Boot Camp Assistant again. It should be able to find the missing partition/s.
