I just got a zune for christmas and dont have a running windows computer run it on. I tried to partition my mac hard drive so i can install windows on it. I did something wrong while trying to install windows because it kept going in a circle of installing it and rebooting. I gave up, then since i cant install windows, i want to delete and get rid of the partition. I went into UTILITIES>DISK UTILITY>the first disk drive>PARTITION>
i clicked on the drive i want to get rid of and then clicked on the MINUS button right below it and had a pop up message saying:
"partition failed with the error: Could Not Unmount Disk"
also when i click on the volume i want gone it says to the right of it "this volume will not be erased. I have no idea what im doing wrong here. I really need help!!
 
If you have created a Boot Camp partition (using Boot Camp to create that partition used for installing Windows, which works very nicely, BTW) - Then, to remove that Boot Camp partition, just run Boot Camp again, and it will give you the choice of removing your Boot Camp partition. You should not normally use any other method to create or remove a Boot Camp partition.
