[QUOTE="JennaBolts, post: 534886, member: 42192"] I got a new Macbook a week ago, and I'm trying to partition the drive so I can install XP on it, but every time I try it says it 'can't continue because there is no room left on volume'. I don't understand this as I've 25gb free, but I've also noticed that if I try to get it to create the new partition at a different amount, it still reverts back to the amount of free space I have. I've tried running disk utility from the startup disk without loading Leopard, and the same problem crops up. Anybody else have this, or know of how I can get past it? [/QUOTE]
