I- What's it?

- - The purpose of the DiskDrake project is to make easier the hard disk - partitionning. It is graphical, simple and powerful. The license is - the GPL (General Public License). -
- Different skill levels will be available (newbie, advanced user, expert). -
- It's written entirely in Perl and Perl/Gtk. It uses resize_fat which is - a perl rewrite of the work of Andrew Clausen (libresize). -

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

- A FAQ is in construction. - -

II - What's available now

- - DiskDrake should be usable now... - - it can: -

create partitions -
delete partitions -
change type of partition -
format partitions -
assign a mount point ((21/07/99) propose a list - of classic mount points and verify the mount point is valid) -
mount partitions -
resize fat partitions -
resize partitions (when not caring loosing its data) -
clear partition table -
auto allocation (usefull for install) -
write fstab -

- -with nice contextual menu (shortcuts available, but dangerous as all actions are -available, whereas with the contextual menu these actions are hidden. This will -change) - -

updated (25/07/99) - A new Expert button appear now. It toggles between - expert and normal mode. Some changes in information 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 -

- -

updated (25/07/99) - The mount point in the `Create' window and `Change type' window is now a - combo box. It lets you choose between classical mount points (/ /usr /var - ...) but with already allocated mount points removed. - -

III - Actual developpment

- - We need people!!! - -

Tests and remove bugs (no known yet :) -
integrate ext2resize (which has been release in version 1.0.0 (26/07/99)) -
