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). > > And I'm agree with many users that want a recovery solution integrated > with the "install disk". 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. -- gentoo-dev@gentoo.org mailing list
