now that finals are over, i'm finally sending in the powerbook for  
repair, but i've made one small mistake.

I have an external firewire drive that i have in two partitions,  
storage and backup.
I use SuperDuper! to make scheduled nightly bootable backups, just in  
case.
last night I forgot to plug in the drive so i had to do a manual  
backup today.

except, I accidently started the backup to the storage drive. I  
caught it after 11 gigs had been copied, and then started the regular  
backup where it should be.

But now, I have 11 gigs of info in a 'Users' folder on my storage  
drive that I can't delete because it says that I don't have  
sufficient privileges for the user.
any idea how to reclaim the space without wiping the whole partition?
