Repartitioning HDD to add a testbed for new distro
Mostly topic. My HDD has a 'doze partition, and then partitions for SuSe 9.3. I want to knock about 5-7G off SuSe (windows doesn't have that much free space) and use it to test/build a new distro.
Distribution: Slackware, CentOS. Red Hat Enterprise Linux

Try Paragon Partition Manager. It's a comercial product but it understands both NTFS and ext3 partitions. (If you're using ReiserFS, you'll need to look elsewhere.)
