Does the same go with creating additional partitions ? ? For
example I've got a 2tb external drive here, all of which i'm using
for data storage right now. I've thought about setting up a
separate partition on it to use for TIme Machine backup, as the
time capsule i have, a first gen time capsule, which only has a
500 gig drive in it, is almost full. So could i safely create a
second partition on my external, without having to reformat it?
Yep, bootcamp is perfect for this. Just run it, tell it how much
space you want the bootcamp partition to take, then let it do it's
thing. After it's done, get out of bootcamp, and go into disk
utility, then format the partition as an osx partition, and you're
all set.
