[ILUG] Disk-Druid after an Install

[ILUG] Disk-Druid after an Install

Hmm so this is just for your general information, and  not for
anything specific? Okay, in that case you should also take a look at
qtparted, which has been described as a clone of partition magic.

If I had a Redhat/Fedora box, I could check but I'm running SuSE at
the minute, and its YAST, tool is particularly GUI  Friendly, for
command line dislikers.

Check through /usr/bin, /bin, /usr/sbin, and /sbin to see if there is
anything there named disk-druid.

As for general graphical stuff, there is a page on linux.ie IIRC, that
lists general *nix equivlents for standard windows apps. Might come in
useful.

Good Luck.
