[newbie] partition tool in LM8 with win2k

[Bill Winegarden]

Hi,     I have a fully functioning win2k laptop. I would like to install LM8 and dual boot. I don't have access to partition magic. Will the Mandrake partition tool in the graphical setup do a reasonably safe job of partitioning my 10 gig hard drive? Has anyone done this install before?   Thanks all, Bill W.
