I believe you can accomplish all of the above with partition magic, I also was
under the impression that generating a new partition out of unused space was
not to difficult in windows latest two versions, you might wish to do some
poking around in the Microsoft tech website

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.
Steve D.
