You can find qtparted rpm's here: http://rpm.pbone.net/ . You need 2 dependecies which you can download from pbone too:
A) jfsutils
B) xfsprogs
NOTE: all packages must according to your fedora version. And if you are using dag's repository you can install it via yum:yum install qtpartedall dependencies needed will be installed. QTparted is located >system tools >qtparted when launched you will need to enter root's password.
FREE PARTITIONING TOOL FOR WINDOWS: http://www.ranish.com :D
If you want to clone a complete hard drive this will serve you well HDclone. (http://www.miray.de/download/sat.hdclone.html) I was able to clone a fc3 installation without problems.
And if you need a different tool for repairing your system and your data after a crash system rescue cd ( http://www.sysresccd.org/index.en.php) will do the job.
Another great tool for antivirus is clamav (http://www.clamav.net/3rdparty.html) which also has a gui tool. You can also install clamav from dag's repository:yum install clamav and to scan entire drive drive included mounted fat32 and ntfs partition run this command:clamscan -v -r /
Need a firewall? Firestarter (http://www.fs-security.com/) is a great tool to stay safe as you navigate.
Want to wipe out or erase an entire drive? use POWERMAX (http://www.maxtor.com/portal/site/Maxtor/menuitem.3c67e325e0a6b1f6294198b091346068/?channelpath=/en_us/Support/Software%20Downloads/ATA%20Hard%20Drives&downloadID=22)
from maxtor.com. It will re-write your hard drive to zeros by doing a low level format (I use the quick low level format).
If you have any other tools that may help us in fedora please feel free to reply.
