I've just followed these instructions:

http://techtips.chanduonline.com/2006/08/19/mac-os-x-how-to-secure-an-external-hard-drive/

...to make an encrypted space on an external hard drive, as I had only about 3.5GB free space left on my iBook G4 (running OSX 10.4.10). I got a progress bar saying it was doing it, but it was happening incredibly slowly - it did perhaps 10% in 20 minutes, so I went downstairs and had lunch. When I returned it had stopped saying the startup disk is full, so I cancelled it, but now I have just 928MB free on my hard disk and several programs won't work because of it.

I've done a search for files over 1GB and found one called "james2.sparseimage" which was modified today and is 31.26GB. Is that something to do with it?

Help!!!
