Re: Disk partitions

Similarly, earlier 'pre-crippling' versions of PartitionMagic worked just fine on both W2k WS and Server installations. Never heard a peep about problems; in fact, on these boards people were recommending the older versions to folks who were stunned at the price difference between the basic and server versions. It'd be interesting to know whether the old PM can handle XP disk structures; for all I know the Fisher-Pricing of that system introduced some under-the-covers novelties as well.

I haven't needed to use my old PM for a few years but still have it around. It's an oldie (like the OS/2 Boot Manager), but it ain't no buggywhip.

Earlier versions of PQMagic let you create a recovery diskette
that was fully functional. It did not care if the underlying OS
was a Server or Workstation version. It would be interesting
to know if the current version allows this too. The same
applies to Acronis Disk Director and its Recovery CD.

This is news to me. The PartitionbMagic folks deliberately crippled PM
in order to peddle the much more expensive ServerMagic...but are you
saying there's some technical server-software or -filesystem reason for
not using any of the many other partition resizers? After duly diligent
backup of precious stuff, of course :-)
