Anyone with any experience doing this??
What I know, I already shared in the above posts. Sorry if that is not sufficient.

How would I go about creating a bootable CD (I dont have an "A" drive) and which utility do you recommend for me to add the existing unused space to my Linux partition??
Download an ISO image of one of the LiveCD projects (see LQ ISO) and burn this to CD (use the 'Burn Image' function). Then set your BIOS to boot from CD before HDD, insert the CD and boot. Th tools I would use, I already mentioned above: cfdisk for the partitioning and resize_reiserfs (or the equivalent tool for ext2/3) for resizing. You can also have a look at qparted. I am not sure, but if you choose a SUSE LiveCD, maybe you can use the YaST partitioner (parted frontend).

LOL That's quite all right! I had no problem resizing my windoze partition using partition magic. I guess it will take just a little more effort in Linux and if it's possible I'll find out a way on how to do it. Thanks for the help, though.
