    GParted Live disc

    GParted Live is a small bootable GNU/Linux distribution for x86 based computers.
    It enables you to use all the features of the latest versions of the GParted application.

    GParted Live can be installed on CD, USB, PXE server, and Hard Disk then run on an x86 machine.

    Accounts in GParted live

    GParted live is based on Debian live, and the default account is "user", with password "live". There is no root password, so if you need root privileges, login as "user", then run "sudo" to get root priviliges.

    GParted Live includes additional packages, such as:
    mlterm - Multilingual terminal emulator (provides access to command line)
    partimage - Backup partitions into a compressed image file
    testdisk - Data recovery tool that can help recover lost partitions
    gpart - (Older) data recovery tool that can help recover lost msdos partition tables
    nano - Text editor
    vim-tiny - Enhanced vi text editor
    parted - Partition table editor (command line based)
    fdisk - MSDOS partition table editor (command line based)

    GParted LiveCD 0.9.0-6



    This is GParted live 0.9.0-7.
    New in this release:
    * The underlying GNU/Linux operating system is based on the Debian Sid repository (as of 2011/Jul/28).
    * Bug fixed: Packages ntfs-3g and libntfs3g were downgraded to 2011.1.15AR.4-2.
    Code:
    ://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=655215
    * Gdisk was updated to 0.7.2, and compiled without unicode support. Therefore no more libicu44 is included. This makes the GParted live iso file smaller by about 6 MB.

    GParted News Item 144
    14 July 2012: GParted Live 0.13.0-1 Stable Release

    The GParted team is proud to announce a new stable release of GParted Live.

    The most significant enhancement is with GParted 0.13.0, which now shows when there is a difference between the file system size and the partition size. Thanks to work by Mike Fleetwood this resolves bug #499202 that has been open since 2007. With this new feature, users can learn if there is unallocated space within a partition that can then be put to good use.

    Another important application change is a fix for bug #678831 which resolves a problem with overlapping partitions when resizing an extended partition.

    Also new in this release:

    Adds web browser icon to desktop
    Adds menu button keyboard shortcut to bring up Fluxbox root menu (bug #578842)
    Useful when using GParted Live without a mouse
    Updates Linux kernel to 3.2.21-3
    Based on Debian Sid repository (as of 2012/Jul/14)
    Includes new GParted 0.13.0 release

    Thanks goes to Steven Shiau for another great GParted Live release.
