Hi all,

 

I installed Brazilian 10.5 version and set up Time Machine. It's actualy using onother formated partition (Journaled) on the same hard drive as Leopard.

 

There's 58Go of free space, but I don't know why, Time Machine tell me that it's unable to complete backup...

 

Can someone help me?

 

Thanks in advance.

is the disk you're using for timemachine the same as your boot disk. if it is, it wont work :(

If not, make sure the DISK (not partition) is using the GUID scheme, NOT MBR. :D (osx86 wont boot unless it's formatted MBR that's why the above wont work)

 

The above post shows the partition, we need the disk info, not partition.

My suggestion would be a second internal harddisk or a usb drive to make sure your data is safe.

 

REMBER; your osx drive cannot be partitioned using guid because is simply wont boot that way. So a spare drive is your only out here :-)
