Hello Alexey,
The Debian.org site is probably the best place to start looking for
information, also here:-
http://www.tldp.org/HOWTO/HOWTO-INDEX/categories.html
There is so much information on the net concerning Debian that you
should be able to find whatever you need on any subject. Just do a
search through the Google search engine.
Partition Magick is a piece of junk. It works, but you will have trouble
later if you want to do things like resize partitions. Partitioning is a
subject that is adequately catered for in the references I have already
given you.
This list is the right place, but before you ask a question here I would
respectfully suggest that you search the associated list archives, where
you will in all probability find answers to most questions.
Regards,
David.
