PartitionWizard broken?

Post by Raziel »

I'm trying to run Partition Wizard (upd6 + all updates) but it won't come up again.

No window, no crash, no nothing.

Does it still work for someone?

If it works for anyone it might be a problem with catweasel (right now i'm having a disk jockey session to backup some games)

If not, then there seems to be a regression

Works for me on peg2 and all latest beta files. Through it still have bugs anyway (memguard hits on exit, which already reported and noted in BZ). But as i say have no probs to run it on peg2.

I don't believe Partition Wizard is supported on the X1000. We haven't found a solution to this problem yet.

I have no X1000 (yet), but lost PartitionWizard on all of my machines (Peg2, uA1).
I don't know when it worked last time, but definitively used it before.

It seems that others has the same problem:

Has PW any known issue or some other system components are broken?

Tried to roll back a lot of updates, but did not helped.

I think your correct. I have to be fair, I have never used partition wizard though.
I just use the preset options in MediaToolBox and setup from there.

Partition Wizard has nothing to do with setting up partitions.

It is a disk salvage, repair and recovery tool.

In other words, Partition Wizard is a media toolbox, whereas Media Toolbox is a partition wizard.

Go figure ...

Best regards,

I can't believe it's that difficult for Joerg to remove/adjust his hardware-locking. Same goes for powerpc.library which has the same "feature".
