The redhat installation iso image comes with fips.exe in the
dosutils/ directory (along with, eg, rawrite.exe for creating the
boot disks from the image files, and loadlin.exe for a quick-boot
into the installer from dos).
The installer itself leaves partition resizing to the user, if that
needs to be done. And it assumes a start point of a dos/windoze
system, runing fips in that environment. The installer can then
be used to create and format ext2 (and swap) partitions, and create
mount points for partitions with other filesystems (including fat).
Yes, you can use fips freely, but the risk is all yours :)
