I have a hard drive that works perfectly well under Linux but Partition Magic thinks it's incorrectly formatted. I've heard that there's some disagreement between PowerQuest (the company that wrote PM) and the Linux world over what the correct format of a partition table is; each thinks the other has it wrong. Does anyone on this list know about the disagreement and the best way to get around it? (The SuSE database yields nothing.)
... i've used PM for quite a long time and recently got frustrated at its slant to the microsoft world. i gave up on it and system commander ... quite frankly, i dont care what PM reports anymore :) PM would report errors - none of those errors were correctible by PM (though they claim they'd be fixable). you just have to weight the options [of the tools' with the outcomes for your particular situation and make a decision :) IOW, what is the predominate system on your box and what is its dependency on a tool such as PM? -- << http://michaeljtobler.homelinux.com/ >> Demographic polls show that you have lost credibility across the board.
