General (read)
--------------
This is a version of fdisk, a partition management utility for Linux.
It has a simple but quite user-unfriendly frontend. Operation is however
simple, with feedback on actions.
Debug information is written to /tmp/part.debug. If you find a problem,
then please include in your problem report a copy of this file. Please
gzip & uuencode this before sending it. If it is compressed using any
other formats, then your email will be ignored.
Don't forget - if you mess up your disks using this program, then it is
helpful to have the debug file, however it will not help anyone to
recover your disk.
Improvements
------------
Improvements in the frontend are welcome - please feed them to myself.
This program uses set of libraries to handle the partitions. Please
do not modify these without emailing myself (address above) - the code
contained within them must remain platform independent, as is the
interface between FDISK and the libraries.
