RE: [TCLUG:7636] partition magic?

Ted:

I just installed Red Hat Linux for the first time last week on a Windows 95
laptop.  I used Partition Magic(not sure what version, I've had it for 2
years though) to make the existing partion half the disk size, with just
free space after that.

I then ran the Red Hat install.  This worked perfectly.  RH created the
Linux partition automatically.  The PC accesses the windows data from
Windows(when booted as DOS under LILO), and the Linux data (when booted as
Linux under LILO).

I'm planning on installing Red Hat 6.0 in the near future. This will be 
my first time so I'm a bit nervous, especially about partitioning. 
(It's a good kind of nervous though :)

Would a product like Partition Magic 4.0  be of any help/harm, or does the 
Red Hat installer take care of all that? 

Thanks!
Ted
