    G'day,
    I recently downgraded my laptop to XP Pro because honestly, I'm not a futuristic man, and don't particularly like Vista... Anyway, I want to also Dual Boot with Linux, How can I add a partition to an existing HDD? I've had a look around but it looks as if you have to re-install OS... Correct me if I'm wrong though! Anyway, is there a way to partition the drive?

    Cheers.
