I think I did bad... (partition/bootcamp question)

[jimmypopjr]

I used bootcamp assistant to make a parition. I wanted to install Tiger on it.

So I formatted it as GUID and installed. Everything was great.

Now I no longer need the partition, but bootcamp will not let me restore it through the assistant. I reformatted the partition as OSX journaled... still no luck. Anyone know a way to get this through?

Thanks a bunch for any input!

Can you delete it using Disk Utility, then resize the primary partition to take up the whole drive?

 

[jimmypopjr]

don't see any such option in disk utility.

The error I get is:

The startup disk must ve formatted as a single mac os extended (journaled) volume or already partitioned by Boot Camp Assistant for installing windows.


edit: nevermind, I think I got it. Had to go into 'partition' on the actual drive, not the volumes, in Disk Utility. Should be all good now. Thanks for the quick response!

I didn't see your reply until this edit, glad it worked for you.
