What is a good partitioning tool for Ubuntu 10.X as an alternative to GPARTED?
I haven't been able to find one that is easy to use.
A commercial product is OK if necessary for ease of use.

  My advice: If GPartEd is too confusing for you, LETS YOUR HARD DISK AS IT IS! GPartEd is one of the easiest tools to partition your hard drive. And if you haven't got enough computer knowledge to work with GPartEd, you'd probably screw up your hard drive and lose all your data in an instant.

  Gparted for me is easier than the windows versions like Power Quest Partition Magic or the one that comes by default. It is one of the eaiest I have seen and that includes the ones specific made for Seagate, Maxtor and the likes. I really suggest from my experience to give it a chance a learn from it since the rest will be harder or more confusing. And for your question Gparted IS a good partitioner and easy to use if you give it 5 minutes at least.

Popular terminal-based partition tools are:

1. parted


2. fdisk


3. cfdisk


4. sfdisk

BTW, to list it I just typed apropos partition. It's really handy command.

  While those are indeed alternatives, I'd hardly consider them "less confusing" than GParted; but to each their own, I guess :)

gnome-disk-utility. This is a personal opinion but I find it to be quite easy than gparted. I think it is installed by default as well.
