ls -la ...
/sbin/parted 44k
/lib/libparted-1.6.so.0.0.5 245K
/sbin/cfdisk 45K
/sbin/fdisk 76K
/sbin/sfdisk 47K

Parted takes up the most room at nearly 290K, but it is a nice tool because of it's ability to resize/move without destroying data.

well i think parted is probly the biggest, cuz it seemed to have the most helpfull info..
before I used it, I tried fdisk, and cfdisk, but was not getting anything done.
so I DOS fdisked it. but it had some pre-existing NTFs partitions, and some didn't delete.
but I was able to run parted, and Nuke em..
BTW, it's a major PIA to have to sudo every (insert explitive if so inclined) command.
and A general linux Question, since I'm a major super newb.
is there any way. to script that once the Xwindows system loads ,it runs a program automatically like calc, or any command? plz email me if possible pk@arkaoss.com or aim me, phllippyarkie
