Well, someone also mentioned GNU Parted, but it seems the parted version that comes with woody is old and does not support ReiserFS (the parted website says that it supports ReiserFS). So I installed reiserfsprogs, but I don't know how to use this tool. apt installed it without a problem, but I can't find the executable. How shall I run this tool?
