I use Partition Magic. It handles all Windows partition types and Linux EXT2, EXT3, and Swap.
You use SUSE (which defaults to Reiser) and find PM sufficient? Don't you have any Reiser partitions? Isn't it better than ext3? (Uh oh, that sounds like a flame-spark...)
I was thinking of PM, but rejected it since I saw no Reiser support...
I didn't well understand the question at first, because I don't see why you should work on "partitions" with windows I my sense, when using "partitions" one must not be logged on a running system. much better use rescue disk or knoppix (or even suse install). for partition backup I made time ago a floppy with partimage (could now be done with a cd), one floppy made the backup and an other the restore, no human intervention. partimage scripts are very easy to edit. then it works on a sector basis, neither system is installed (the system is only used to see which sectors to backup) jdd -- pour m'écrire, aller sur: http://www.dodin.net http://valerie.dodin.net http://arvamip.free.fr
