Partitioning tool

Hey:
sorry for so newbie question?

is there any software to live partition the boot disk of my build?
i was looking around and nothing found yet, but iPartition, and .... there's issues about that one?

i'm looking for other soft that let me live resize partition, or just partition and resize.

any suggestion??

kind regards

Edited: I'm talking about MBR partitioned disk

Umm, i know that Disk Utility can resize GUID partitions, but i think it will erase it. If you think about resizing partition @MBR maybe you`ll find this usefull :

Seems to work, it`s quite easy and free.

PS. If you would find any Mac app which can resize partition live - let me know, i could use the tool aswell

Yes using gparted with journaling off should do the trick...
Worked for me...
