Default backup partition size determination?

Hey gurus,
I have partitioned my hardrive which is
/root
/swap
/var
/home
/backup?

What I am having difficulty with is that I could not create a backup
parition becuase it is asking for full disk capacity to be mentioned
when I create the backup partition. The full disk capacity is 18 gb
(theretically), but when I punch in 18gb it give me an error. I tried
a couple different options such 17gb, 16gb and so on, but nothing
worked. Any ideas on how to tackle this situation.
Anyhelp would be greatly appreciated.
thanks.
