MBR Wizard

[John Corliss]

This looks like it may have potential. I just noticed it at Nonags:

"MBRWiz is a command line tool designed to directly modify the MBR,
with the capability to set partitions active for booting, delete or
hide partitions, back up and restore copies of the MBR, as well as
sort the partition entries.

Included in the download is a 32 bit version (MBRWiz.exe) for Windows
NT/2K/XP/PE/2003, a 16 bit executable (MBRWizD.exe) for DOS and Win9x,
as well as a version for Linux."

Anybody tried it yet?

It doesn't look bad but it would appear that there is no logical partition
support!

Hmmm, but it looks like it's mainly focused setting MBRs anyway. As
for creating logical partitions, that's something that can be done
easily enough with fdisk unless somebody needs to do that on the fly
so to speak.

Here's one that allows partition resizing without data loss (according
to them):
