Any good free partition software to go for?
I need to delete 2 old linux version partitions & then install a newer version of linux.
 
Partition Magic or if you are using Vista or Windows 7, then use the Windows partition tool. It's good and does what it says on the tin. Mucks link is probably the best though :D
 
Win 7 has it's own, free.

Hard drive manufacturers have them for free.

Linux specific? then I'll stick with my first answer. :)

Wassup with that one then? It's free, doesn't look too difficult to use to me and it does what it says on the tin.

What are you trying to open it with, its an ISO isn't it?
 
Well here's a thing, I just downloaded the ISO and it's MD5 sum doesn't match the one given on site. Plus the site's not loading completely for me in my browser. So it's possible there's a glitch. I haven't tried burning ISO, don't want to waste a CD if MD5 sums don't match.

I have a version of G-Parted I burnt to CD from 2 or 3 years ago, it works well. I also have Partition Magic 8 which is probably about ten years old now but works well
 
will try partiton magic then.
if no luck i will scrounge a copy off a friend who has the full version of one he uses at work.
 
That works Mucks :thumb: MD5 sums matched, CD burnt from ISO, booted into system after making a few choices via boot.

Twas about time I upgraded to latest version.
