hi, well, mandrake 8.1 has a partition resizing tool of its own however, i have never used it myself, and i have hearf tales about it messing up win'98 partitions what u can do is remove the winblows partition and make a few linux partiions in it's place which can be mounted as /usr /var /home and so on... cheers Sayamindu
