Did you check out http://linux-ntfs.sourceforge.net/
They have a program ntfsresize that should
be able to resize your partition. I have yet to try
it. I "cheated" when I resized my laptop's drive
(IBM A31p):
do install
after IBM does the first reformat, the partiton is FAT32
boot Linux (e.g., RedHat install disk)
run FIPS and resize
reboot and let Windows install in the resized partition
reboot and install Linux
Good luck
