HI
I was just wondering if redhat has any plans for making diskdruid or a tool like it availble after install also?
I tried to google at the subject, and found a replay for redhat that stated that they looked at parting diskdruid from the installer, but no more info than that (and this was in 2001).
Anyone who can give any clues?

It's still something that I'd like to do at some point, it's just basically a matter of finding time to work on it. Or someone else finding the time to work on it :-)

That's nice Jeremey :)
Is there any other tool that is at the same level as diskdruid? since diskdruid lets us make pretty cool disk layouts, but after install, the user need to know about too many strange tools with too many parameters. Probably most users changes their partition and lvm setup at the most once per two years, and by then they have certenly forgotten how to use those console based tools anyhow. I tried searching freshmeat, but I could only find tools which did 30-40% of the job that diskdruid does ( like handling ext3 resize, and no more, or handling lvm but not fs or md).
Diskdruid looks like a real nice software, since it manage to give the user a easy way of handling pretty complex stuff :)
