Select a location to save the image.  The volume that you are saving the image must have enough free space and be able to handle large files.  Mac formatted (HFS+) volumes work fine.  Give the image a name and click Save.

Your Boot Camp partition is now being saved.  Notice that a new image is now added to the Sources, and one the save operation is complete, you can then use the image for restoring or creating a package for deployment.
