Alright. I am considering a dual boot with Linux/XP on the same harddrive and I'd like to know if there is any good partioning software out there that will preserve my XP. (Last time i tried to partition with the Linux installer, I was using Mandrake but now would liek to try Slackware)

Thanks in Advance,

~War

I beleive slack from with ntfsresize so you resize an NTFS partition.

Beyond that, you're looking ta Partition Magic.

arconis makes a tool for windows that is faster and cheaper than Partition magic. I had the to use it when parittion magic refused to work as my HDs were on the 2ndary IDE mainly do to case design and motherboard designed forced it that way. but it beats partition magic up
