Hi,

I've written an X11-based hard disk partitioning tool, called
DriveSetup, and am looking for fearless testers. It uses libdisk(3) for
slice/partition table mangling, so it is unlikely to wipe out your disk
due to a bug, but of course, I cannot be sure without more testing.
So please try it out, if you have a spare disk or box.
But beware, it's still possible that your disk gets trashed, so please
don't use it on disks with important data!

Features:
	- create/delete slices
	- create/delete partitions
	- mount/unmount partitions
	- run newfs on new partitions
	- add swap partitions

Developed and tested on 4.0-RELEASE. It probably won't work on 3.x.

You can download the source at

There's also a screenshot at

Thanks in advance for your feedback!
