i've partitioned this external 500gb hd into 4 partitions, so it can act as a backup for my familys' computers. 3 computers work fine, however this macbook is flipping shi.t when i try to back it up.

it says that the partition isn't big enough to back up onto, when the partition is larger than the computer's hard drive itself.

i've resized it, and i still get the same issue, saying that the partition needs more space (when it clearly doesn't).

is there a bug fix for this or something?
