[SLE] partitioning question
-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 hey heres what is my prob...i got a 10.2 gig hd with winders on it and i need to repartition it without reformatting .... now i heard that the fips proggie will do it but is there a safer way to repartition will partition magig do it ? just curious cause im gonna knock this winders install down to like 5 gig or so... and add another 4.3 gig as a slave..maybe even xfer the winders partition down over to the 4.3 gig and put suse 63 on the whole 10 gig again... if all else fails i will reformat cause it doesnt take that long to do a reformat/re-install... later..........

Hi there, Sounds like Partition Magic is exactly what you need! You can resize, create and move partitions without formatting them, so your 'winders' will still work. Check it out... See ya, Emerald teganos1 wrote:
