Diskdrake

The purpose of the DiskDrake project is to simplify hard disk partitioning. DiskDrake is graphical, simple and powerful, and licensed under the GPL (GNU General Public License).

Two skill levels are available (newbie, expert).

It's written entirely in Perl and Perl/Gtk.

DiskDrake is a project from Mandriva, the company behind the popular Mandriva Linux operating-system.

 

Features

DiskDrake can, with a nice contextual menu, accomplish the following:

• create partitions
• delete partitions
• change type of partition
• format partitions
• assign a mount point
• propose a list of classic mount points and verify the mount point is a valid mount partition
• resize fat partitions
• resize partitions (when not caring to lose its data)
• clear partition table
• auto allocation (useful for install)
• write fstab

The Expert button toggles between expert and normal mode. Some changes in information are displayed:

• when you click (or focus) the drive tab (eg: hda), you get information about your drive: size, geometry (cylinders/sectors/heads number), type (eg: IBM DDRS-39130D), and bus/id. In normal mode you have only the size.
• the windows drive letter (eg: C: D: ...)
• the {start sector} information from normal mode, it still appears in expert mode
• the start & end cylinder of each partition is now displayed in expert mode
• the type is displayed numerically in expert mode
