Open Source Partition Manager
By admin on Jan 4, 2009 in open source
GParted is the Gnome Partition Editor application.
A hard disk is usually subdivided into one or more partitions. These partitions are normally not re-sizable (making one smaller and the adjacent one larger). The purpose of GParted is to allow the individual to take a hard disk and change the partition organization therein, while preserving the partition contents.
GParted is an industrial-strength package for creating, destroying, resizing, moving, checking and copying partitions, and the file systems on them. This is useful for creating space for new operating systems, reorganizing disk usage, copying data residing on hard disks and mirroring one partition with another (disk imaging).
Among all, it supports FAT32, NTFS and Linux ext2 and ext3 file systems.
GParted Live is a small bootable GNU/Linux distribution for x86 machine.
It enables you to use all the features of the latest versions of GParted.
GParted Live can be installed on CD, USB, PXE server, and Hard Disk then run on an x86 machine.
