You might want to try Partition Commander. I've used it on a 10 Gig hard

Hello,
I got an opportunity to attend the Linux installation workshop at Atlanta Linux Show.
It was great. It was so easy to setup the non-commercial Red Hat there.
I bought the cheap CD-Rom of Mandrake 6.1 and try to install it on my home computer.
I partitioned my hard drive with PartitionMag
Thanks John...
So when you say "don't install the tarball version", are you referring to the version
that was installed by Mandrake6.1? Secondly,
where does one find the Mandrake RPM version?

Yes fips does do a non-destructive resize. The interface is a quite like the
