Just got my laptop (HP zd7260) and the SuSE install won't resize the XP partition.
How do I do this?
I just resized another NTFS on an HP laptop. I used ntfsresize and fdisk with much trepidation but it went smoothly and worked fine. First I did the windows defrag several times to get everything down to managable, then ntfsresize, noting the beginning and ending of the current partitions, followed by fdisk. Then I installed SuSE9.1 and they both play nicely now. Didn't lose a file and the owner is using it as if it was never touched! If you decide to go this route, print out the man page and follow the instructions verrrrrrry carefully. ra
