Nope.. Q: What is QTParted ? A: QTParted is an attempt to create a linux-based clone of Partition Magic. Actually, a clone already exists called "parted". It allows the creation, reorganization, and removal of partitions. But "parted" has a command line based interface, which can be difficult for a newbie to use. However the developer of "parted" decided to separate the core of the program from its interface. So the program "parted" is actually a simple command line UI to libparted. Libparted is the core that actually does the partition editing. QTParted is a GUI created around libparted written in QT (hence the name... QT + Parted = QTParted). -- [EMAIL PROTECTED] mailing list
