Download Partition Logic 0.61

Partition Logic is an open source program to manage partitions on hard disks. The program can be put on a bootflop or CD and is then developed in-house Visopsysoperating system started. The latest version of Partition Logic is numbered 0.61 and can be downloaded as iso- and floppy image. You can use to create a bootflop in Windows RawWrite. Partition Logic 0.61 has the following changes:

Overview: This is a maintenance release. New features include support for resizing NTFS filesystems and arbitrary partitions, IDE block mode I/O, Linux swap detection and clobber, and improvements to the operating system, plus assorted bug fixes.

• Partition Logic can now resize Windows XP (NTFS) partitions, as a result of porting Linux ntfsprogs NTFS resizing code.
• Allows partition-only resizing regardless of the filesystem type (with appropriate warnings).
• Improved IDE/ATA hard disk driver performance by implementing block-mode I/O.
• Added basic ‘stub’ NTFS filesystem support (detection and clobber).
• Added basic ‘stub’ Linux swap filesystem support (detection and clobber).
• Added a kernel disk function for rescanning the partitions of a single disk.
• Add a kernel filesystem function for getting statistics about a filesystem (whether it’s mounted or not, or indeed, properly supported or not).
• Added a kernel filesystem function for getting resizing constraints.
• Added a kernel filesystem function for requesting specific detection of filesystem type (useful for removable media and such).
• Text mode now shows the operations/commands in two columns.
• The ‘move partition’ and ‘copy disk’ functions now use standard progress dialogs and show time estimates.
• Fixed: After formatting FAT32, Linux and older Windows installers would show the filesystem as 100% full.
• Fixed: Errors with IDE/ATA hard disks as secondary masters.
• Fixed: Unformatting (clobbering) a partition in the didn’t seem to convince the kernel to un-detect the previous filesystem until reboot.
