Basically, I setup a sorbet partition on my G5, restored to it. It should be 250GB in size, but instead:
- Disk utility reports 250GB capacity, 8.6GB used, and 661MB Free
- Finder
reports 9.21GB capacity and 661MB available. Any idea what's up? Sorbet does boot on the partition, but I'm booted into Tiger in this photo.

Hmm, it didn't resize the filesystem when after it restored the image, odd.. Try a:
diskutil resizeVolume "/Volumes/Sorbet Leopard R15" limits
in terminal

oh, that probably should have been `100%` instead of `limits`. It might work better when booted into Sorbet. I think I did my restore from Leopard instead of Tiger so it might have worked better for me.

Well something is seriously wrong here. After taking this photo it began to repair a bunch of permission issues.
