How reliable is fips?  I use Linux on a seperate HD, but a friend of
mine would like to install to his current Win95 drive without backing
up, repartitioning, etc, etc.  Does anyone have any praise for fips, or
more importantly any horror stories?  Any real reason to go out and buy
partition magic if you've got fips?  I've never used either.  Thanks.
