I have a feeling Partition Magic isn't all that magical with ext3 partitions. I think there must be something Linux fdisk (or Disk Druid) does that's legal, but freaks Partition Magic out. Previously I've looked in the manual for PM and researched the error messages with good results. The manual used to be very good with detailed info on error messages. I don't have a current version of PM, so I'm not sure what documentation is like now. Partition Magic has been around for a long time, and has helped me out many times, but it doesn't always work. They tell you to back everything up for a reason.
