Apple\ Loops % ln -s /Volumes/DiskName/Path/Apple\ Loops\ Index/. Create the links to the moved folders: % ln -s /Volumes/DiskName/Path/Apple\ Loops/.Launch the Terminal and type: % cd /Library/Application\ Support/GarageBand/.The three directories to move are named Apple Loops, Apple Loops Index, and Instrument Library. Move the GarageBand folder contents into another folder (I did not move the GarageBand folder itself, in case the app wants to have it on the same hard drive for any unknown reasons).Simply create symbolic links of the directories instead of regular alias files. The solution lies in the UNIX layer of OS X.

Unfortunately, Apple's installer does not let you do that, and if you try to put them some other place and create an alias in the right place, the app will complain that it can't find the files. If you are like me and your powerbook's hard drive space is precious, you'd better put those GarageBand loops some other place.
