A co-worker of mine bought a Dell w/ XP on it. He also bought Partition Magic (whatever the new version # is that supports XP) and he just resized the XP partition and installed SuSE on the rest of the drive. He's used it for about 3 months now and it works fine. I don't know of any other partitioning tool that works to resize XP other then Partition Magic. I would check out PM to see what the cost is. * Ronald Wiplinger (ronald@elmit.com) [020413 11:34]: ::I cannot get a clear picture of the description of Windows XP and SuSE ::8.0 on the same machine. :: ::I want to buy a new notebook, which has Windows XP installed, and I want ::to setup SuSE 8.0 parallel to it. ::Since XP is pre-installed, I have no idea if it fits together or not. :: ::Can anybody give me a hint? :: :: ::bye :: ::Ronald :: :: ::Ronald Wiplinger (ÃQ¤¯¯Ç), CEO, ELMIT - THE Internet Solution Provider ::Tel. +886 2 8809-7680, Fax. +886 2 2809-9158, Mobile: +886 915 653-452 ::Net2Phone:8869550066, ICQ: 111651169 ::http://www.elmit.com http://www.wiplinger.org -=Ben --=====-----=====-- mailto:ben@whack.org --=====-- "I've never been quarantined.
