"Startup disk almost full" message
Helped a friend install Super Duper on his G4 Mac Mini yesterday. He's running OS 10.3.9. He did his first backup yesterday. Now he's getting "startup disk almost full" error messages. Before the backup, he had about 6 GB free on the Mac Mini's internal hard drive. Any possible connection with Super Duper and, more importantly, any remedy for this?
Any guidance is appreciated. Thanks. Chris Columbus, OH |

Eject the backup drive and use Finder's "Go To Folder" command to look in
/Volumes Any folders (not links/aliases) in there?

Thanks, Dave, I'll try that this evening, but I'm wondering . . .
What *should* I see in /Volumes (i.e., what shouldn't be in there that I should delete)?

Just aliases, no folders with the same name as the backup drive.

If I see a folder with the same name as the backup drive . . .
Is there something I can do to prevent that from happening again?
