Works fine even on disks with NTFS in my experience. Granted, it's a bit scary nearly every time I use it, but it works and it's never apparently hurt my machines. I usually go step by step. I'll remove or resize down one partition that I'm least interested in and then I'll reboot every installation and make sure things look good. Then I'll boot the CD again and do the next step. I prefer to be silly-paranoid when using it. I go very slow and carefully think about each step, but as I say I've never had anything go wrong so I'm happy to recommend it. Good luck, Mark _______________________________________________ Linux-audio-user mailing list Linux-audio-user@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx http://lists.linuxaudio.org/mailman/listinfo/linux-audio-user
