Yeah, works like a dream. Got a laptop with a 2G hard drive with WIN95 installed. Was looking forward to blowing away the win95 to re-partition thedrive but lo and behold the supplied partition modifier worked like a dream and removed 1 G from the back of the WIN95 partition for linux. Neat. Now got dual boot witl LILO for linux or WIN95.
