Ya'll,

Spousal unit wants Kubuntu 8.04 installed on it and she wants to keep Winbloze 7 
as well. Wiping and install, no real issue, but windows 7....

Anybody have any war stories on installing and resizing partitions on windows 7?

Alvin

Did something similar with Windows 7 and Ubuntu 10 on my daughter's Compaq 
6910p. In that case I bought a new larger hard
drive, used dd to copy Windows 7 partition from the original drive, and then did 
the Ubuntu install from CD.  No problems at all.
Unbuntu saw the WIndows partition and set up the dual boot.
