It's not impossible to break the volume into smaller volumes, but that doesn't gain anything. The point of the sparse volume is to be expandable while only consuming the required amount of disk space ... and if I create a bunch of smaller volumes ... I haven't gained that. Also, a long time ago, I did use a bunch of smaller volumes, and found it annoying because if I wanted to use more than one, I'd have to mount more than once. Soon learned it was far more convenient to put the various encrypted volumes all into a single larger volume. _______________________________________________ Tech mailing list [email protected] http://lopsa.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/tech This list provided by the League of Professional System Administrators http://lopsa.org/
