| Creating a Temporary Partition |
| You can create a temporary partition on your hard disk that can be used to set up data you want to record to a disc. |
| Temporary partitions are useful in situations where you want to have complete control over the layout of your data and how its windows are arranged and displayed. |
| To create a temporary partition: |
| 1 | Choose Utilities > Create Temporary Partition. |
| The Create Temporary Partition dialog appears. |
|
| 2 | Enter a name and size for the partition. Choose a size that is appropriate for the size of the disc you are making with the partition. |
| 3 | From the On pop-up menu, choose the hard disk or network folder where you want the temporary partition to reside. |
| 4 | From the Format pop-up menu, choose the type of format you want this temporary hard disk to have: |
| • | Mac OS Extended. Select this option if you plan to use the partition to record a disc that will be usable only on Mac OS 8.1 or later. |
| • | Mac OS Standard. Select this option if you plan to use the partition to record a disc that is usable on ANY Macintosh computer. |
| • | UNIX File System. Select this option if you plan to use the partition to record a disc that is usable on the UNIX operating system. |
| 5 | Click OK. |
| Toast mounts the partition on the desktop. |
