Yes, it's called QTParted :) QTParted doesn't need X for example SystemRescueCD uses it in console mode: http://www.sysresccd.org/ Another advantage it has, it's always quite up-to-date. For example it can safely move data around on NTFS so no need to defragment before resizing. Knoppix 3.4 still has some quite old tools :(Quote:

I've been running a Debianized Knoppix 3.3 for about six months. It doesn't make much sense to upgrade to the latest knoppix, though you can use the live-CD to learn a few tricks.
