I have something called "Partition Surprise". I'm not entirely sure what it 
does as I've not had a chance to try it out. I'm wondering though if this 
is what you mean. It's a modified linux bootable iso. I can bring to the 
next meeting if anyone wants to try it out (I'm hoping to actually make it 
to a meeting in the next couple of months.)
