I had to load Ubuntu recently for a project I'm working on and was very impressed by the fact that they had a partition editor that painlessly resized the existing NTFS partition and made room to install Ubuntu. If they are the same that's great, otherwise if someone gets a round 'tuit before I do it would be nice to add both tools to the list. Doug -- This .signature sanitized for your protection
