Where to download cfdisk

Hi folks,
I have been searching a while for "cfdisk" without success. I found it coming in a group package namely "util-linux" on "kernel.org" website, including "fdisk". However I already have "fdisk" running. Nor can I find it with "yum search cfdisk" (I have freshmeat repository).
Finally I found "cfdisk-glibc-0.8g-1.i386.rpm" on Internet. I'm not sure whether it is the right package. Any advice. TIA

RH dropped cfdisk from the util-linux package some years ago. I don't know why they did so and cfdisk is the preferred *fdisk utility anyway. Ask if anyone in #fedora knows something about it and if not, report it as a bug and build yourself a copy from the kernel.org source. There is a small chance it was removed for a good reason so test it and make sure it works properly on a non-critical drive. Don't install rpms you just find on the internet.

Hi Wolfbone,
Tks for your advice.
I was told that cfdisk is on CD1, the rescue/boot CD. I haven't had it in hand and am going to download its ISO image and burn a CD to test.
