Paragon Releases Dual Boot Partition Utility

camp_tune.pngIf you are a Mac Boot Campâ„¢ user and ever wished you could easily re-allocate free partition space between Mac and Windows, Paragon software’s latest offering may be just what you’ve been looking for. A free, pre-release version of Camp Tune promises to let users redistribute free space between Macintosh and Windows partitions in minutes without data loss, adding free megabytes to partitions on either operating system quickly and easily.

While Leopard’s Disk Utility supports partition resizing, a Boot Camp partition cannot be re-sized without erasing it (although you could back it up first and restore it after re-sizing). Camp Tune’s disk image must be burned to a CD or DVD, creating a bootable Linux-based Disk which Tom Fedro, president of Paragon Software Group – Americas, says “helps remove the barriers between the Windows and Mac operating systems.”

    Unfortunately as of this time (0920 EST) the link sent to me after registering gives me a 403 error (two attempts)…

    I downloaded the app but couldn’t get it to work either. There’s no instructions or troubleshooting docs included or on the website.
