Can't remove partition (ex Bootcamp partition)
I am trying to remove the an ex bootcamp partition..
I initially went into disc utility. Chose the partition containing the windows and clicked on the - button.
This has removed the windows stuff in the partition but left the partition there.
When I click on the partion in disk utility all the options in disk utility are greyed out.
It won't let me drag the main partition down to extend it and remove the windows partition.
Baiscally it will not let me do anything with the partition.
I have tried using bootcamp assistant but this will not let me do anything. (tried reinstalling windows but would not format the partition) Error
The reason I was deleting the partition was to do a complete format of my hard drive and a clean install of Lion.
I just can't remove the windows partition.
I have even tried the disk utility at start up (cmd an r) still all greyed out on the windows partition.
Any help would be apprecaited.
PS:Tried Stellar partitionmanager but it wont work on an encrypted drive. Didn't know my drive was encrypted.
