I did this here with ghost and a big hard drive.
first I ghosted the images to a file then removed the partitions, rebuilt them
with the sizes I needed them and ghosted the images back.

Subject: [windows2000] Resizing partitions
Afternoon everyone,
I've got problem in the foreseeable future, which I'm trying to plan for to
head off.
The company I now work for has a Windows 2000 Server (sp3). Its running on a
PC with 2 34GB SCSI drives, which are mirrored. The drive(s) is set up as a
dynamic disk, with 2 volumes. One has the OS, the other is all data.
Reasonable way to set things up. Only problem is that whoever created the
volumes didn't leave enough room for growth on the OS volume. My system volume
has a 1.95 GB partition with 452MB free. The other volume has 17GB free.
Naturally I'm looking for a safe way to resize both partitions - giving more
room to the system partition. Any good recommendations? Problems people have
encountered in the past with this?
