Normally the old M$ install has already taken the whole disc...I used
a program called fips to nondestructively resize it.. you should have
it on your Linux disc someplace,
it is a floppy image you can put on a boot disc with rawrite in M$...
defrag and scandisc and follow the really good instructions in
fips...this good old program will not work with NT or maybe some of
the later 98's I don't remember. but it has a backup program built in
that will restore your partition table if it gets smeared. I made good
use of that.8-)
