How do I delete a partition of the HD??

[JRHCPA]

I have had my macbook for a while and I needed windows for something so I decided to try out Bootcamp. I read that you are supposed to back everything up on Time machine so I tried that. I made a partition on my disk for everything to back up to. Unfortunately I did not leave enough space and time machine stopped. I tried to delete the disk and just create a partition for Windows, But I don't know how to delete it. Please help?

Put in your Mac OS X disc, restart and hold 'c', then go into disc utility. It will have to erase your HDD's though.

What does your partition map look like? You mean you have a partition for OS X, one for Windows, and one for Time Machine?

Sambo110, Disk Utility under Leopard can non-destructively repartition the boot partition while it is running.

I can't make one for bootcamp because the assistant won't let me it says i need to have my start up disk restored to single partition .

How do I go to the partition map

Open Disk Utility, select your drive, and go to the Partition tab.
