Please suggest an OS X 10.3.8 compatible backup application that's

inexpensive shareware which I can use to copy (burn) a large (5 GB)

I need to reformat the Hard Drive, which currently has only one
partition,
and is only set up with OS 10.3.8, into two partitions, so that I can
install both OS 9.2.2 and OS 10.3.8 separately. I don't wish to
manually
break up this folder to archive it. I'm hoping your suggestion can
help me
to reinstall it onto the iBook once I've reformatted and installed OS
9 & OS
X.
My copy of Retrospect Express v.4.3 won't work in OS X. I'm looking for
something which, like Retrospect, can produce a series of linked CD's
to
archive something larger than 700 MB.
I'm looking to be able to download the application you suggest, and
get to
work. What do you suggest?
I don't have a free backup ap, but there is an ap called iPartition
which allows you to repartition drives without erasing/reformatting
them It was a lifesaver for me (timewise) and I've used it about 8
times without any problems. It's not too cheap either, I think I paid
$45 for it with the pound/dollar conversion. Yes, you can download it,
but it doesn't work unless you pay.
