FWIW, I've had bad luck with using Partition Magic more than two or =20
three times on a drive. I just don't even use it any more.

Also, I've had bad luck using MSW-side software to do anything with =20
the partitions after *BSD partitions are cut. MSWindows can't seem to =20=

obey its own rules.

If you have to dual-boot, cut the primary (BIOS-level) partitions =20
once with MSW (and PM, if you must), then leave the BIOS-level =20
partitions alone. Better yet, use two drives.
