Well ... I'm not so sure about that. QTParted and its underlying parted 
do not work safely with NTFS or reiserfs. As far as I know, they work 
with ext2 and FAT32, and may work with ext3. That's it! Partition Magic, 
which is licensed, works with NTFS (but not reiserfs).

I've got a stack of "rescue CDs" -- Knoppix, Kanotix, Fedora Core 3 
rescue, etc. Most of the rescue tasks I need to get done can also be 
done by Damn Small and by the Gentoo LiveCD. The one I reach for, 
though, is Knoppix, because I have more experience with it.
