Glad you worked it out. For CCC, I assume you will have to set up a new backup script (not familiar with v5 capabilities...still using v3.4.7).Mark said:OK. FYI: I got the partition done right. Just a 7GB Mac OS Extended and ALL the rest is the internal boot drive. Thought about how I had done it. Went back to DU partition and used the cursor to fit the 7GB after the internal boot space, or at the top of the partition map. This did not divide the boot drive space, and I wound up with only the 7GB and the 114GB boot partition.
But I found no instruction about doing this. Anyway, should be OK now. Moved all data files onto the 7 gigger. I like this method. It's convenient. Thought I had lost it. But I'm a stubborn Scot. As you suggested, will check reindexing from the partition eventually.
Assume CCC will certainly distinguish to the correct source partition when I want to back up the boot partition. ? I can find out from them if problems.
Don't know anything about TM yet. I understand it sets itself up ?? It will have to be an external, of course.
Thanks, .... Mark
