I want to re-size an NTFS partition containing Win XP Pro on my Dell laptop
PC to make the partition smaller to free up some space so that I can create
a new partition to install Linux on.
I have download a trial version of Partition Magic and a trial version of
Acronis Disk Director Suite 9.0.
I set the changes I wanted to make to the partition to make it smaller
(re-size)) but when it comes to actually making the changes to disk I got a
message from both Partition Magic & Acronis Disk Director Suite 9.0 saying
this was only a trial version and I needed to buy the full version to do it.
Does anyone know how I can re-size a partition for the purpose mentioned
above using free software? I am reluctant to buy software as I won't need to
do it again as Linux comes with its own partition software.
Any suggestions?
I appreciate any help or information given.
I hope you can help.
Thanks!
