A word of caution on this program. I downloaded it a couple of days ago and used it on a partition on my external 750GB FireWire drive.
After pointing it to the partition I wanted it to use, it proceeded to wipe the HD completely, removing all my partitions, and installed the Lion boot disk onto a new single partition which could not be resized! Fortunately I have more than one backup - but it could quite easily have been a disaster.
