I need to resize the ntfs partition to about 40 gigs and install linux on the remaining 40. [snip] Any ideas? Any alternatives to gparted with better ntfs support?
Don't know if this will work but suppose you boot into a live distro that has the latest kernel support for NTFS and then use gparted utility in it if available?
Solved.
Used a tool call Bootit NG. Worked like a charm.
Next step is to install a suitable distro. Any suggestions?
Its a HP Compaq v5000, Intel Centrino Duo, 1 gig RAM, pcmcia card reader, WLAN, built in sound/video. Can any distro detect all of these? I'm interested in RH/Fedora or Suse.
