[YLUG] gparted

[Chia-Hung Lin]

What gparted version is used? 

Last week I need to install dual boot for windows 7 and debian (squeeze). There is no problem for gparted (I think it is v0.6.2) to recognize windows  7's partition; however, windows 7 can not recognize ntfs formatted by gparted. 

FYI

btw, this is just my personal prejudice, I would install the whole disk either with windows 7 or with GNU/ Linux only.
