Changing the size of the drive container

You may find, after installing software in a drive container, that the container
is too small or too large for your needs. You cannot change the size of an
existing drive container, but you can create a new one in the appropriate size
and move the software to it. You can also create an additional drive container
to supplement the existing one.

Two active containers maximum: For the following procedure to work,
drive D must be available for assignment to a new drive container. If both
drives C and D have been assigned, you must first set drive D to None and
drive C to the container you need to replace. (The contents of the container
mapped to drive D are unaffected.)

Calculating the proper size

To determine the proper size for the new container, follow these steps:

1

Make sure you’re in the Mac OS, then open the PC Setup control panel.

You see a small apple at the upper-left corner of the screen when you’re in the
Mac OS.

2

Check the name of the container associated with drive C.

The name of the container appears above the C: pop-up menu.

3

Locate the container in the Finder.
