Hey, glad to have ya on.  That's the wonderfull thing about mailing lists,
you can pick minds from across the world ... if you can speak their
language.  (My wife grew up in Kearney and her youngest brother and family
live there so we get back every once in a while.)

Congrats -- editing/resizing partitions is no small feat.

Since Chris has had luck with HFS+, has anyone used the parted to resize a
WinXP NTFS partition?  My wifes Athlon XP64 3000 really needs a small
Linux x86-64 install on it but I don't want to have to go through the
backup/fdisk/restore process.  (I *will* do the
backup/parted/cross-fingers process nomatter what anyone says!)  Any
experts want to chime in?

Dan
