I have rubbed shoulders with the developers of this product -- it's hard
not to absorb some of their enthusiasm.   The CEO has a good track record
in the past with dos defrag type products (I can't remember the name of it
right now, but you'd probably recognize it).

Partition magic WILL resize (shrink or grow) HPFS partitions.  You can pull
the plug out of the wall on the middle of the conversion and not loose more
than one file.

It will also convert from FAT to HPFS "in place" (NTFS to follow).

One of the hooks they use goes something like "When you install
OS/2,just let it create one huge [hpfs] partition -- then repartition your
disk (to install BootMgr,  for example) later."

The product will run under DOS or OS/2 (character mode) or PM.  Ie: You can
convert from FAT to HPFS by booting DOS if you like.
