Hello,
I'm writing a new http://wiki.tldp.org/Partition-Mass-Storage-Tools-HOWTO

and so do a scan of the various partitionning tools available.

1) I noticed that openSUSE only provide util-linux fdisk (kernel) when
 the prefered one seems to be GNU-fdisk, parted based fdisk
(http://www.gnu.org/software/fdisk/).

is there any important reason to do so?

2) Is the YaST partitionner based on parted? if not, are the libraries
specific or coming from...?

thanks
jdd
