Very Computer

Just to avoid having to reinstall OSX, can anyone recommend a
partitioning utility for OSX that will allow me to non-destructively
re-partition my iBook hard drive so I can install debian or YDL? (think
Partition Magic for Windows).

thanks!

PartitionToolkit from FWB
(http://www.fwb.com/html/partition_toolkit.html) is supposed to do
that.  I have not yet tried it yet, though.  You will need a separate
system partition (a bootable CD will do) with MacOS 9.x and the
program on it to make this work.

Hope this helps, benny

If I had subscribed to this news group one month before, your hint would
habe saved me a lot of work   :-(

But for the next time I know now  :-)
