The somewhat cryptic fdisk tool has now been replaced by a wizardlike utility called Disk Druid, which allows users to prepare their disk using an easy-to-understand graphical interface. Version 5.0 also includes a utility called Kickstart, which allows admins to store all system parameters to a floppy or network disk, then use those parameters to set up multiple, identical OS installs on any number of machines.
