Hello Folks! I have a related question. I have just installed 3.0 on my external Fujitsu 2624F and decided to make the internal Quantum into a swapdrive. But, I wanted a 50/50 disk. So, I go off to format and build the Quantum and the "partition" button is hazed. Why ? Ok, I ignore it, and build the disk with "swapdisk" as name. No problemo ?... ok it worked but then during boot-up I get lot's of complaints from the machine (cannot swap to /private/vm/swafile.front) and it seem to swap to external. Finally, with all this... I cannot get the "recycler" to work. My questions are : 1. How can I get my internal quantum to partition 50/50, so that I can build half for emergency boot and the other for swapping. 2. Why am I having "recycler" problems. Thanks folks... +---------------------------------+ ___ ___ ___ | Stephane I.
