Alex Presumably your 'tidying up' was responsible for removing my further explanation, in which I advised that the critical need was to be able to implement non-zero preceding space (with a jpeg supplied to illustrate the point). I see that my advice that version 0.3.3.9 of GPartEd is the best version so far in this respect, actually working, has also vanished.
But, I do like your title revision !

The latter isn't available for Ubuntu, whilst the obsolete - GNOME Partition Editor v0.2.5 package as only just included with Feisty - Fawn doesn't work properly. - - If there's anyone awake and interested or contactable, I can advise - which version of gparted works and needs making available within 'the - Community' or advise what specification is needed for an imaging - product. - - I have already solved both problems and am advising non-Geeks on how to - follow suit. with existing WinXP installations. + Support for moving ALL file systems was added in 0.3.
