PartedMagic uses minimal Graphics and works fine with all Graphics Cards except a few Nvidia and ATI Cards.

Have you tried to boot up from Fedora Installation Media? GParted is available in Installation Media.

Look for GParted Partition Manager in Menu. I dont know its exact location in Menu.
Or
Open Terminal and execute this
Code:
su -
gparted

You could try an older version I have 1.9 and that is still more than capable of doing the job. Any other live CD with gparted on will also do.

You can do the resize through the CLI but I think it is easier to make mistakes that way.

Yes. Try earlier versions of PartedMagic. Newer version has latest version of Xorg and it doesn't work in a few machines.

Hi,

I think partedmagic < 2.2 is not so easily available now. Tried torrents but no seeds, checked in the parted magic own website, no link. So what to do? Where can I get this?
