Hi,
I accidentally only have 1 linux partition, /dev/hde1
For some reason DiskDrake didn't allow me to rearrange that partition during
the install, I chose expert install and the "Auto Allocate" option in
DiskDrake just gave me an error message [forgot what it was] . And now I'd
like to introd
You might want to try Partition Commander. I've used it on a 10 Gig hard
drive and done almost everything to a partition you acn think of without
losing data.

That's not what I want to do. I already have linux and
windows partitions with running OSes in each. I need to
resize them, make windows much smaller, linux much bigger.
Partition Magic gives a check failed message and right
clicks or menu options don't work.

Thanks, I wasn't aware fips could do a non-destructive
resize.
I'd used it before to create partitions, but never resizing.
You just saved me a ton of work.
Appreciate it.

Yes fips does do a non-destructive resize. The interface is a quite like the
fdisk (linux) interface. Make sure you read the README first or else you
might not know what you need at different stages of the re-partitioning.
Hope this helps.

That's interesting. I havn't needed to use their support, but now I hope I never
need it. I hate it when I spend that kind of cash then get left out on my own. I
only paid $70.00 for my copy, but that's a lot for just binary code, even if
it works as well as PM has for me.

I am using Version 4 and it is supposed to do a
non-destructive partition changes in windows and linux.
DiskDrake looks nice but does a destructive resize and I
have my linux tweeked and tuned the way I want it. While I
could reinstall, I wanted to avoid that, thus the purchase

I purchased Patition Magic, a bit over a monthy ago, and it
cost $80 but does have a rebate to bring it to about $65.
I installed it to change my windows and linux partitions.
It doesn't recognize the partitions tables that I installed
with fips during original mandrake install in version 5.3.

For those wanting to repartiton a hard drive.
There is a freeware non-destructive repartitioning progrm called fips.
It might be in the dosutils directory on your CD. If not you can get it
at the Mandrake ftp site or
ftp.redhat.com/pub/redhat/redhat-6.1/dosutils
If that won't work, I downloaded
