14 DAY TRIAL // After he released last week the third minor maintenance update for the stable 4MLinux 22.0 operating system series, developer Zbigniew Konojacki today informed us on the availability of a Beta version of his upcoming 4MParted 23.0 disk partitioning live system.
Based on the forthcoming 4MLinux 23.0 operating system series, 4MParted 23.0 Beta is using the latest Gparted 0.29.0 open-source and free disk partitioning tool at its core, giving users an independent live system for all sorts of disk partitioning tasks, supporting numerous filesystems.
While not a major release, GParted 0.29.0 adds support for the UDF file system, so you'll be able to also partition these type of filesystems using the 4MParted 23.0 Beta Live ISO image, which dosesn't require you to install anything on the target computer where you want to partition the physical disk drive(s).
In addition, GParted 0.29.0 improves support for the FAT file system by addressing a segmentation fault on disks with a corrupted file system, and fixes snap-to-alignment of operations when creating partitions. It also allows resizing of Btrfs partitions mounted with whitespace and improves detection of LVM2 PVs.
It's a part of the 4MRescueKit initiative
Parted of the 4MRescueKit initiative, which also includes popular live systems like Antivirus Live CD, BakAndImgCD, and 4MRecover, 4MParted is a very lightweight live system that has been designed from the ground up for all of your disk partitioning needs. The latest release, 4MParted 23.0 Beta includes up-to-date components.
If you want to try out 4MParted 23.0 Beta, you can download the ISO image right now from our website. However, we have to warn you that this still a pre-release version of 4MParted, so you shouldn't be using it for any production work. The final release will be available early next month based on 4MLinux 23.0.
