Can you get your hands on a test system? Yeah every time I go at a hard drive with fips I use caution. However, and this may just have been lucky ole me, I've had success with fips and parted. One of the things that fips does do is create a backup of the partition table prior to writing it. I have not had to recover using this backup, but I did create the backup files when I was going through the process. BUT, I have not used fips against NTFS-5. You can bring fips up without doing anything and see what it says... about your scheme. _______________________________________________ Redhat-list mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] https://listman.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/redhat-list
