   I have a little patch for NTFSProgs (http://www.linux-ntfs.org/) to 
make it
   work on Solaris and is included in BeleniX. This gives us the ability to
   resize/move NTFS partitions. Gparted uses NTFSProgs. You can get the
   Solaris package from:

   
http://www.genunix.org/distributions/belenix_site/binfiles/FSWfsmisc.tar.gz

   Gparted, libparted and NTFSprogs should provide a complete partitioning
   solution on OpenSolaris.

Moinak.
