Re: a good accessible disk utility program.
Out of curiosity, how is Disk Utility not accessible? I have partitioned drives and repartitioned drives a number of times over the years. Lion is even more accessible in regard to if you need to repartition an existing drive.

Re: a good accessible disk utility program.
Hi! yeah, this totally baffles me as well. Disk Utility works perfectly fine. So far, I've only seen one thing that doesn't work under 10.7, and that's locating the Destination field when restoring a disk image to a drive. It's doable if you know how to use a mouse, but it appears VoiceOver doesn't know it's there otherwise.

Re: a good accessible disk utility program.
I don't know what you are experiencing, so let me take a step back. 1. There is a table of all of your connected and internal drives and partitions within drives. You must first select the drive and not any partitions on it. In other words, you want to make sure you select the item that has the name of the device and size of total capacity spoken. 2. Then, choose the partition tab from the 5 available tabs with the spacebar. 3. You then should be able to use the popup button to choose the number of partitions and then choose the format for the volumes and space you'd like to allocate. There is a scroll area that you will have to interact with and VO space on that has the name of the partition before you can alter its size. The Mac will give the partitions default names like, Untitled 1, Untitled 2, etc. 4. Once you have done all alternations you desire, just VO space on the partition button and the drive will be partitioned as you configured.
