New to pearpc. Need help. Can't pass "Select a Destination"

Hello all, 

I'm new to pearpc and I hope I don't get flamed for asking.  I've been following all of the helps and faqs that I
can find regarding loading Mac OSX 10.4.3.

I have followed the instructions on loading Mac OSX in a windows environment.  I have created an .ISO of my
installation disk.  I have also setup my disk using the link provided to download the emptydisk image at
http://prdownloads.sourceforge.net/pearpc/pearpc-3gib.img.bz2.  I've unrar'd it and placed this
in my pearpc directory.    When I do, it places an image file there called "pearpc-3gib.img".  If I go to my Pear
PC directory, the file size is  3,145,464 kb.  I have also tried the "pearpc-6gib.img" on the pearpc website
as well.  

I have made the changes to the config file to the following:
pci_ide0_master_installed = 1
pci_ide0_master_image = "pearpc-3gib.img"
pci_ide0_master_type = "hd"

pci_ide0_slave_installed = 1
#pci_ide0_slave_image = "e:\"
#pci_ide0_slave_image = "2,0,0"
pci_ide0_slave_image = "MacOSX.iso"
pci_ide0_slave_type = "cdrom"

When I launch it from command line, PearPC opens and the installer comes up.  I can get through Introduction
and accepting the license.  When it comes up to the "Select a destination".  It is blank.  The only option that
I have at this point is to "Go Back".  everthing else is grayed out.  

Is there somehting that I'm missing?  Any help would be greatly appreciated.

You have to partition your virtual disk image. You can do so by using  
the Disktool that comes with OS X. Right now I dont remember the  
correct path to go,
but when the installer comes up just play around in the menue to  
launch disk utility. When you have your partitions set up
you can choose them in the installer later on.

Jens,

Thank you.  I had tried this several times, but I just kept getting hung 
as it would not let me select the drive to partition it.  But after 
several reboots, I finally got this to work.  I guess persistence pays 
off in the end.   I kicked off the install last night.  I know that at 
one point it stated that it still had 15 hours left to finish 
installation.  It is actually still installing.  I've just reached 100% 
at installing Lexmark Printer Drivers.  The total progress bar is about 
75% done, and it says that It still has About 4 hours and 18 minutes 
left to go.  I now that every where I saw, they say it takes a long time 
to install.  The question that I have,  does this sound unusually long?  
I've already edited the memory to 512mb,  I'm probably going to increase 
this to 768mb on next reboot.  I'm also going to change the emulation to 
a G4.  I'll keep tweaking it until it runs a little bit better.  Just 
wondering if this is normal and does it run quicker once it's actually 
up and running?
