When I try to follow the procedure outlined there, using HD SC Setup utility, the "Partition" button is grayed out. A friend with the same setup (but running system 6.02, I am running 6.03) has no problem doing it. As a matter of fact he found out that he has 1 more Meg that he can put to good use (installing Colony again :-)). Any clues? I have a SE with a 20 Meg internal hard disk. System 6.03 and HD SC Setup version 2.0. Inits: Gatekeeper, boomerang, Logout. Note: I tried booting off the System disk, but that didn't help.
