Hello,

        I bought a 259GB external disk to use for backing up my internal 80GB  
HD on my eMac, which is using OS 10.5.5. One of my friends on the  
email circuit recommended that I divide the disk into two partitions,  
one the same size as my internal HD ( 80GB ) and the other what was  
left. They said I should connect the larger one to the Time Machine so  
it will be constantly up to date. I should backup the smaller one  
every month or so to bring it up to date. Imagine my surprise today  
when I switched to the smaller backup partition and got a message that  
I needed 42.4 GB and I only had 41.5GB, so I couldn't backup.
Any suggestions?
Thanks

Wilton
