Hi there,
Another nice/easy approach would be to use Mandrake 7.2; its has an tool
somewhat similar like partitionmagic.
-make sure you defrag the w2k partition
-During Mandrake install choose manual partioning scheme. There you van
graphivaly shrink the w2k partion and build your linux partition in the
empty space.
No fuzz, works like a charm,
