I've never successfully formatted a partition under Shapeshifter or
Fusion- not sure why. Instead, I just stuck to hardfiles- under
Shapeshifter, I created two hardfiles each filling a partition (I have 2
partitions set aside for Mac emulation). Fusion was different as it has
to sue specific filenames and works of a single assign, which is a bit
if a git as it meant I had to go down from 4GB in SS to only 2GB uin
Fusion...
