It sure beats PartitionMagic!, May 31, 2002
By A Customer
This review is from: Acronis OS Selector 5.0 Deluxe (CD-ROM)
I needed software to partition and multi-boot a new box I just built with Windows XP (NTFS file system) and Mandrake Linux (ReiserFS file system). (I know you Linux purists are wincing, but I still need my Windows). Anyway, OS Selector did everything it said it would, plus it was really fast. I won't go back to PartitionMagic after using this slick software.

Good, but not great, September 13, 2002
By A Customer
This review is from: Acronis OS Selector 5.0 Deluxe (CD-ROM)
Upon installation, it did not work - only 1 OS would boot. Downloaded latest build, but still didn't work. Contacted support team. They created a new build & emailed it. At least they did so quickly. Been working OK since. It works ok as a boot manager, but since it doesn't do everything I need it to as a parition manager, I still need Partition Magic. Kind of expensive for just a boot manager.

I bought my first computer 6 mos ago with XP preinstalled. Wanted to try out RED HAT 7.3 (ext3)and this was the only software I found that supported it. Great product!! The manual cost it a star. Better off reading the help files after you install. Examples on dual booting Windows and Linux would be helpful.
