HDD partition resizing tool
I have an XP system at work that I would like to setup as dual boot with fedora. The problem is that XP's partition occupies the entire HDD. I need to resize it without destroying any data on the win partition. I know that there are various tools that will do this, but some are better than others. I tried this once with partition magic 8. Actually, more than once. It has successfully done the job probably 4 times for me, but it failed on my laptop PC, and I lost all the data (well...what I didn't have backed up).
My question? What (in your opinion) is the best tool for the job? Keep in mind that I would prefer cheaper, or free software for numerous reasons. It is important that I don't ruin my hard drive since it is a work PC.
Thx for your input.
