cannot map raw drive using vmware-rawdiskCreator

$

Followed the instructions for mapping a raw drive found elsewhere on this forum, I get hung up on creating the virtual drive from the physical partition.

 

The command I entered is as follows:

"/Library/Application Support/VMware Fusion/vmware-rawdiskCreator" create /dev/disk3 1 "/Virtual Machines/BCVM_DISK2/disk2" lsilogic

(have also tried ide and buslogic in place of lsilogic with the same results)

 

and the error returned is this:

Unable to copy the source files to the destination files.

 

The partition contains a functional Windows XP installation

 

The drive this parition lives on also has another NTFS partition containing non-system files.

 

Any help would be greatly appreciated.
