Norton PartitionMagic 9
If you run out of space on the first rescue disk as a result of adding network, SCSI, or
CD-ROM drivers to your boot sequence, you can delete the following files from the disk:
chkdsk.com, fdisk.exe, ptedit.exe, and partinfo.exe. We recommend that you delete the
files in that order, freeing up only the space that you need to accommodate additional files.
These files are included in the Utilities folder on the PartitionMagic CD where you can
access them later, if necessary.
If you use an international keyboard or character set, you will need to modify the
AUTOEXE2.BAT and CONFIG.SYS files on the rescue disks. Refer to “Using
International Keyboards” on page 23 for additional information.
Checking an NTFS partition with the rescue disk version of PartitionMagic may take an
unusually long time. Since PartitionMagic performs checks both before and after the
move, copy, and resize operations, these operations may be slower with the rescue disk
version of PartitionMagic than with the Windows version.
Command Line Switches
The following command line options are supported by the Windows version and the DOS
(rescue disk) version of PartitionMagic, unless noted otherwise. When you specify
multiple options, the order is unimportant.
