    In the past, I have maintained versions of Partition Magic for use in
    installfests. I'm a bit leary on trying parted on participants machines
    without some experience.

    Is GNU Parted that comes with the SuSE 9.0 installer sufficient to
    safely resize a Windows XP NTFS partition?

    Is there any difference between Qparted on Knoppix 3.3 and SuSE's GNU
    Parted.

    Actually, I am planning to have my students install SuSE 9.0 in class on
    Thursday evening, so I might try to repartition one of the systems in
    the lab.
