I had the same problem here... First I created a 15Gb partition for X but it
did not work well..  Now that the X partition is within the 8Gb limit
everything is working great. Do do this I had to repartition the drive. Does
anybody know if there is a program like Partition Magic (www.powerquest.com)
for Mac? On my PC I have been using this to change my partitions when
needed, without losing data!
