Subject: Re: Setting up NTFX on Win2000

Of course Partition Magic destroys the contents when formatting...that's what formating is, unless I am misunderstanding some angle. The whole point of using partition magic, or lilo (if your k00l <g>) is not destroying data when changing file systems... The easiest way to have multiple partitions on a single drive with as many different files systems as you want is Partition Magic. It works in DOS, Windows 95,98,2000 and even, god help you OS/2... As noted earlier, Convert is not reversible. Partition Magic is.
