I have a copy of Windows 7 Ultimate that I want to dual boot on my unibody MBP. When I try to use boot camp to create a partition, it says "Files cannot be moved. Back up Disk utility to format it as a single mac os extended volume. Restore your information and try boot camp utility again."

I try to use Disk Utility to create a partition then. Main Harddrive reads 34 gigs free, so I create a 25 gig partition. it works for a few minutes then says "Partition failed.error, no space left on device."

But.. i have 35 gigs free. I tried erasing free space as well as clearing PRAM on startup.

Specs
2.26 core 2 duo
4 gigs 1067 DDR3
os x 10.5.8
