Partition Logic is a free hard disk partitioning and data management tool. It can create, delete, erase, format, defragment, resize, copy, and move partitions and modify their attributes. It can copy entire hard disks from one to another.
Partition Logic is free software, available under the terms of the GNU General Public License. It is based on the Visopsys operating system. It boots from a CD or floppy disk and runs as a standalone system, independent of your regular operating system.
Partition Logic is intended to become a free alternative to such commercial programs as Partition Magic, Drive Image, and Norton Ghost.
Partition Logic (version 0.66 and later) can be used with Windows Vista. However, you should not move your system partition using Partition Logic, and in some cases you will need your Vista installation CD/DVD to update the boot configuration before Windows will start. Vista uses a new boot process that is sensitive to changes in the boot sector and partition layout:
Vista NTFS partitions (including the system partition) can be resized without any problems. Resizing will automatically schedule disk checking for the next boot -- this is normal.
The Vista system partition should not be moved using Partition Logic at the present time. More information will be posted as it becomes available.
The Partition Logic "Write basic MBR" operation and "MBR boot menu" can be used, however Vista will report that it cannot boot, and needs the installation media for repair. Follow the instructions and allow it to 'repair' itself. The repair only takes a moment.
