Knowing this, i downloaded another 'retail' iso from a bittorrent site just in case my MSDNAA iso was corrupted somehow (since i already had a legitimate key, it didn't matter where the install source came from).

At the time, i did some research and people were saying that to get past this freeze, one had to delete the partition created by Boot Camp Assistant (BCA) and create a new partition while in the Windows 7 installer. This disc, for some reason or another, would freeze upon the 'completeling installation.' Stage of the install.

I should mention that the first Windows 7 Pro disc i had, i downloaded from my school's MSDNAA website and burned the iso directly. This past weekend, after being fed up with not being able to see the windows partition, i decided to start from scratch. I spent one week to be able to install Windows 7 in bootcamp and have it working in Parallels as well.

Sorry if I can't help much, but this GUID/MBR partition table is a nightmare. Then if Disk Utility shows /dev/disk0s3 instead of BootCamp or whatever, and worse as a FAT32 fs, I really don't understand how you manage to boot from the Bootcamp partition. Anyone have any ideas? I wish i didn't have to boot into windows to transfer files between the volumes.Дo you have Paragon NTFS or NTFS-3G installed? If so get a rid of them, they caused me thousands of problems with the bootcamp partition in Snow Leopard. I've never been able to mount the disk in Snow Leopard since i've installed Windows 7, maybe it has something to do with how i erased the partition during the install? Windows 7 reports the partition as healthy when scanned using chkdsk. In the disk list it says 'disk0s3' but when i try to mount it it fails silently, nothing even in the log file. Well i can't even get my Windows 7 NTFS partition to mount.Дisk utility lists it as a FAT partition, which is incorrect. Running chkdks in windows seems to have fixed the problem but still. Personally, I got a kernel panic in the middle of a write to an NTFS drive less than an hour after I enabled NTFS writing following this hint. The Macrumors thread that the OP refers to has plenty of posts by people having various issues with this feature. Be VERY careful using this feature as it appears to be quite buggy which is undoubtedly the reason it wasn't turned on by default by Apple or advertised in any way. This is a great hint but some caveats are definitely in order. (And using mount's '-f' force option doesn't help the aforementioned comment suggestion either.). Plus, for the record, if you create that fstab entry you may begin seeing a line appear in your Console logs stating: 'automount: Mount for UUID=123 has no path for the directory to mount' resulting from an idiotic parsing bug in 'fstab.c'. I should also mention that at both the MacRumors forum (mentioned) and the Apple forums there has been considerable reporting that doing this leads to system instability and possible loss of data. My thanks go to Chrysaor, a MacRumors user who brought this to our attention. Support is quite good and fast, and it even recognizes file attributes such as hidden files. This works with both 32- and 64-bit kernels. After rebooting, NTFS partitions should natively have read and write support.

Save the file and quit nano (Control-X, Y, Enter), then restart your system.

Repeat the above steps for any other NTFS drives/partitions you have.

The final line should look like this: UUID=123-456-789 none ntfs rw, where 123-456-789 is the UUID you copied in the first step.

In the editor, type UUID=, then paste the UUID number you copied from the clipboard.

Back up /etc/fstab if you have it it shouldn't be there in a default install.

From the output, copy the Volume UUID value to the clipboard.

In Terminal, type diskutil info /Volumes/volume_name, where volume_name is the name of the NTFS volume.

Here's how to get full read/write support for NTFS drives in Snow Leopard. Snow Leopard has the ability to mount NTFS volumes as read/write, but it's not enabled by default - just read only is supported, as in 10.5.
