When you run the ubuntu install it gives you those choices at install time
and is accessible.

Subject: Accessible Way to Partition


Hi,
    I'd like to load ubuntu on my laptop, which has a 120G harddrive. I'd
like to use 60 for XP and 60 for ubuntu. Anyone have any suggestions for a
way to do it without sighted help. Also XP is already loaded so I'll have to
shrink the existing partition, and add a new one for loading ubuntu. I
haven't done anything like this in years, and the last time I did it it was
booted in a DOS prompt. Is there any package that can shrink the partition
of a running XP OS so that JFW speech is available?Or any other way to do it
without sighted assistance.
