[aclug-L] Re: Mandrake Linux ISO?

["Dustin" <dustin@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Most Linux distros nowadays include a utility called "fips" in the dosutils
directory.  Mandrake has it, I'm sure.  Just look on the cd under dosutils.
I know you need to defrag your hard drive before you use it so that it gets
the correct amount of free space on the drive..

Anne -

Thanks for the offer of RedHat 7.2.. but what I really need is a
non-destructive partition program like 'Partition Magic'. Since from what I
have read and heard it will move DOS/WINDOWS files around as needed to clear
harddrive space for a new/larger partition.

I guess if it comes down to it I could just reinstall '95 and the utility...
