I take it this is NTFS for NT 3.x or 4.x. Have you done it with NFTS for
W2K? NTFS for W2K is considerably different in its internal structures. I
believe W2K has some calls you can make to NTFS to resize a partition, so
that might be a better way to do it.

I suspect that if PM does not already support W2K NTFS, it will. The
maintainers will also have their hands full with four, counte 'em, four
journaling file systems now or soon to be available for Linux.
