partition table blues (60gb just not enough room)

post #1 of 3
Thread Starter 
I have a 60gb hdd, well, but i have more plans for it than it can chew, but at this time i can't afford a 7k100 upgrade (not even a 100gb 5400rpm).

this is the plan:
Linux
Windows
Mac OS
Fat32 "Documents"
Linux Swap

with my currect space (and needs) i think best i can manage is:
Windows - 20gb
Linux - 10gb
Swap - 1gb
Mac OS - 9gb
Documents - 20gb


thats quite a change from my current config of:
20 windows
1 swap
20 linux
19 mac os (err...still working on it, doesn't run correctly yet).

but, i guess i can manage with 10gb for both linux and mac, considering my media files will be on the Documents partition, and the only reason Windows gets more is because thats where the games go.

ugh anyway....just wanted to vent


and oh yeah, i'll post pics once i get mac running on my "powerbook"

I've been thinking of doing the OSx86 any pointers. I've just recently starting looking at the docs.

bsmith...not very much into it yet myself, still reading stuff, getting required tools and apps...you know, getting ready to try and install 10.4.3

i found that profit42.com has great howtos that actually work, and that osx86project.org forums are fantastic as well.
