I like Partition Expert from Acronis. It is win/dos based, but works great with linux. Less expensive than PM. Jim Flanagan On Tuesday 24 February 2004 00:42, Neville Cobb wrote:

According to a couple of different partitioning programs (Partition Magic and Ranesh), something is seriously wrong with the partition table on my second hard drive. Partition Magic can't even list its contents. Nevertheless neither cfdisk nor Yast finds anything wrong with it. Are there any other Linux partitioning programs that might be able to diagnose and fix the problem?

I found that I had that problem with partition magic some times but also found that it ran OK providing I booted from the PM floppy disks I created. It only seemed to freeze and/or refuse to read the partition when it was run from within windows.
I also use qtparted. There are two good sources for this and they are the knoppix and the system rescue disk ISOs, they both have worked fine for me. The URLs are:
