I have Partition Magic 5.0 and use it with reasonable success to move around between Win2K, Win98, NT4.0, BeOS and SuSE 6.4 Linux on my experimental machine. I would say that the only downside I have encountered so far has to do with the fact that Partition Magic won't install on the Win2K partition (or, of course, in BeOS or Linux either). This means that, while I can run PM to select between NT and 98, and can select to go into Win2K, I need to execute a single `boot floppy' to get out of Win2K, or to get into Linux. Boot Magic might be able to take care of this for me, but since I currently have all 5 partitions working successfully, I am not in a particular hurry to risk bringing it all down by screwing up the MBR... I was _extremely pleased_ BTW with the ease of SuSE 6.4 instillation. It is certainly the greatest computational bargain I have ever purchased... David Hamilton wrote:
I've just ordered Suse Linux 6.4 and I will be a first time Linux user. I'm quite happy to buy Partition Magic 5 if it's going to make life easier for me. I'd like to read some documentation on Linux Fdisk before I do though. Because I currently haven't got Linux, I can't read tarred and gzipped files ... and this is all I can find concerning Fdisk.
Does anyone know where I can get the Linux Fdisk documentation in a format (html, txt, zipped) that I can read please? Or could someone email it to me please?
Thanks.
