It is really a Driver(as Aleksey said) called partmgr.sys, not an app.
"It is a filter driver that sits on top of the disk driver. All disk driver requests pass through the partition manager driver. This driver creates partition devices and notifies the volume managers of partition arrivals and removals. Exposes IOCTLs that return information about partitions to other components, and allow partition configuration."

dumb question, is this going to a partition manger that runs in ROS or is it meant to work at "installation' time?

partition manager!
cool!

let me one suggestion: why not develop it as a separate application, so that you can release it both as an independent app and ReactOS-integrated?

This way people can downlad and install in Windows in case they dont want to use ReactOS yet
