Hi,
I've ran into an odd situation which I've never seen before. I'll try to describe as best as possible.
The scenario:
Machine a) G3/300 bege, OS 9.2.2; 20G hard disk, MacOS Extended, containing about 16G of data.
Machine b) Performa 6360, OS 8.1; brand new 40G hard disk nearly empty (Seagate), MacOS Extended.
The plan:
Copy all data on the G3 disk (16G) into the Performa disk (38G free space) and switch disks thereafter.
The problem:
I started the G3 from a CD, connected the two machines via ethernet using the Performa as server and started the process. I did a few folders first and paused for a couple of hours. As I resumed the process, I was surprised by this nonsense message I got: "There is not enough room on the disk 'performaDisk'.... I went to the Performa and opened its HD Get Info window, and it said it had 36G available. However, calling the Performa HD's Get Info window remotely (from the G3), it says the disk's total capacity is 1.9G /1.9G available.
Any help is appreciated. Thank you.
Harold
