Drive repartitioning tool for dual boot installation
Not sure if this should go here or in a distro specific area (mods, feel free to move the thread if it's more appropriate in the Ubuntu area).
Anyways... I'm looking to install an Ubuntu-based distro on my laptop (Backtrack 5R3, specifically). Right now I have it installed on a 32GB USB stick and have freed up some space on my Win7-64 partition for the install. The question I have though, is whether I need to worry about data loss if I use the Ubuntu installation utility to repartition the drive or should I use another piece of software to do it. In the past, I've used Partition Magic for this kind of thing, but I no longer have a copy (had one with my MacMillan version of Mandrake 6.1 years ago).
Can the Ubuntu installer safely repartition my drive?
