GParted Manual Curtis Gedak

GParted FAQ 1 : What are the dependencies of GParted? You will need Parted >= 1.7.1 and Gtkmm >= 2.8.x Get Parted from http://www.gnu.org/software/parted/ and Gtkmm from http://gtkmm.org/ Also, several file systems are supported through their native tools. See the features page for more information on these tools.

Screenshots Well, here it is.. the most popular part of any projectpage :) Hopefully this will give you an idea of what GParted looks like.

Gnome Partition Editor GParted is the Gnome Partition Editor application. Before attempting to use it, here is some basic background information. A hard disk is usually subdivided into one or more partitions. These partitions are normally not re-sizable (making one larger and the adjacent one smaller) 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 filesystems 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). GParted uses GNU libparted to detect and manipulate devices and partitiontables. Several (optional) "file system" tools provide support for file systems not included in libparted. These optional packages will be detected at runtime and do not require a rebuild of GParted. GParted is written in C and uses gtkmm for its Graphical User Interface (GUI). The general approach is to keep the Graphical User Interface as simple as possible. Every attempt was made to conform to the GNOME Human Interface Guidelines.
