There is no workaround to this limitation; the necessary startup files must be found in the first 8GB (I would make it 7.8GB) of the HD for OSX. A few comments:
-I installed 10.2.8 using the custom install options using only 1.6GB of space; I eliminated all the foreign language translators and printer drivers.
-You can use all 10GB of HD space. Even though partitioned, files such as iPhoto, iTunes, etc, can be linked to the main 8GB partition. The 2GB is still usable but just not quite as conveniently. -
Mar 21, 2008 12:08 PM in response to jplby Apple Rules,I know at one point of time that I had a full 10GB of space available while running Tiger on this system, I just cant remember how I did it. Is it possible to set the first partition to like 1MB then install OS X on the second partition (which would be 9.99GB). -
