This summer, I got a deal on a PowerPC mini (80gb) and have been happily using it in my home theater for music. Because its convenient, I've also been using it to sync my iPod (64gb... You can see what's going to happen here.
Well, I upgraded to OS5, my Mac Mini is completely filled and I'm dead in the water until my new firewire HD arrives.
I know I can set the new external drive to be the boot drive, but is it possible to set it up so the external only has the "Users" file on it. I'd rather let the Mini do the booting, keeping all the related system stuff separate from the part I'm changing and messing up (all backed up via Time MAchine, of course).
What are the steps to do this, if possible?
Thanx
