Not specifically to do with iMovie but I crashed my orig. 10gb Pismo
hard drive by getting it "too full" and it was a week-long nightmare
that eventually ended with it being mostly restored, thanks to
DiskWarrior. Shelled out the $100 for DW after two days of kernel
panics and fscks to no avail and then an additional 5 days of DW
running non-stop restoring the drive. Before that happened, I didn't
know about the "keep 10-15% of your hard drive free no matter what"
rule but I found out about it afterwards and now abide by it
religiously. Just my .02...

Hey, G-Bookers,
I have a venerable graphite iBook (466 mHz, 320M RAM), running iMovie
2.1.2 under Panther. The iBook's hard drive is almost full (less than
1 of its 10Gs is free), but I have a brand-new 120G external firewire
drive attached, and my digital camera (Canon ZR-70) attached to the
external drive.
I can't get iMovie to accept the camera's output (repeated get error
message "disk responded slowly") -- same problem I'd hoped the
external drive would solve.
I'll bet that the problem resides, still, on the internal disk, or the
system isn't happy with the chaining setup.
It's where important stuff like VM and temp directories are created,
no matter where your project files get stored.
Get a larger internal drive, go here
<http://caslis.com/mac/ibook/ibdrive.html>, get a torx 8 screwdriver
and have at the iBook ...
There are a number of articles on Apple's web site dealing with this
error:
