I am trying to install Windows XP Professional on a Boot Camp partition. When I select the partition (which Mac has formatted to FAT32) I know that I need to reformat to make it bootable. However, once I select the partition, XP simply starts to install without giving me the option to format. I have an iMac 2008 with Leopard fully updated, and a full copy of XP w/ Service Pack 2. Of course, when XP installs without formatting, I get a disc error.

Help?
