Doesn't linux have it's own partition manager for issues like these? I checked the site out and it is $39.95 for the software but I really don't need yet another boot manager when one is available already for linux, i.e. grub. Anyone have any suggestions here to fix the /boot and moving paritions programs? I do have system commander but the more I think about it, I still have the problem of correcting the configuration files to the changed partitions. Seems like a crapshoot game here.....
