Hi,

I have RH 7.2 installed on an older machine with smaller HD disks and need to
re-partition so as to reclaim
unused space.  I have tried Partition Magic 4.0 and 7.0, only to find that it
will not recognize the unused space
in the partition - it only sees the partition from as a solid slice and will
not allow me to alter it.   Fdisk appears to be too crude and does not do
"editing" on an existing partion.  I read where cfdisk will do the job but I
cannot find it on either my RH distribution or on the Web.  If cfdisk is the
answer, where can I get it.   If not, what do I use?

Thanks,
Harry
