Well, ubuntu can do all of this for you, thanks to it's built in partition help tool in the installer. Just make sure you double-check all the choices you make.
Jam it back in, in the dark. |

When I installed Ubuntu I backed up my stuff only for safety's sake, in case anything went wrong, though nothing did.
I partitioned my drive through the Ubuntu Installer and everything went fine. When I next went into WinXP it handled the change to the new size it was in with no trouble at all. If you're expecting to be able to browse your files in your windows partition from the start (Assuming it's NTFS) you'll be let down, though it is possible with a few little tools installed. Likewise, winXP can't read ext3 file systems. There's nowhere I can't reach. |
