Partition "Manager"??

A while ago (I cant find the post!) someone asked whether there was a
"Partition Manager" app for linux... dont know if this is what they were
after; found it on freshmeat today:-
you can download it from: http://apps.freshmeat.net/download/937790960/

I like the comment that reads "This program can destroy data, and is not
yet safe for general use" ;)


   GNU parted 0.0.3
   Andrew Clausen - September 27th 1999, 17:19 EST 

   GNU parted allows you to create, destroy, resize and copy partitions.
It currently
   supports ext2 and fat (fat16 and fat32) filesystems and linux swap
devices, and
   MS-DOS disklabels. This program can destroy data, and is not yet safe
for general use.

   Changes: Added linux-swap support, fixed problem with large hard
disks and
   implemented better error handling for ext2. 

   Urgency: medium
