It does come with that functionality. RH has several utilities which
do exactly that, fdisk and parted among other things. Those utilities
are not gooey, but command line and can do whatever YaST2 or some other
gooey tool can do. Bottom line is that disk partitioning is not
for beginners or fainthearted people. If you know what you're doing,
you can do it with fdisk. If you don't know what you're doing and
you're doing it anyway, you should have been a politician.
