I have moved to using QTParted. It's on the Knoppix cdrom and works very well. Just open a terminal, type "su" and then "qtparted" (no quotes of course). I like using a LiveCD to repartition my drives, rather than a program that is installed on a drive. It always seemed like trouble waiting to happen when I used a program to partition the disk it was running on.
