GPARTED LIVE CD (Freeware)

[F1]

GParted is an industrial-strength package for creating, destroying, resizing, moving, checking and copying partitions, and the filesystems on them. This is useful for creating space for new operating systems, reorganizing disk usage, copying data residing on hard disks and mirroring one partition with another (disk imaging). The power and simplicity of GParted on a biz-card size LiveCD.

The CD aims to be fast, small in size (~50mb), and use minimal resources to get that disk partitioned the way you want it. GParted LiveCD uses Xorg, the lightweight Fluxbox window manager, and the latest 2.6 Linux Kernel.

Cool, I might actually be testing this puppy real soon!

I will let you know when I get around to it.

The program works great!!

I resized a 14GB Hard Drive that had a single partition with a Windows XP Pro installation on it taking a little over 2GB of space. I repartition the Windows parition (accidentally) to little over 5GB thinking that it would be the new empty one for the Linux installation...the program shows the new parition in a blank/greyish color proceeding the existing used parition which shows in bright yellow and that is what confused me I guess but I re-partitioned it again and still no issues. The program is fast and does a fabulous job too, imo!
