Are you using both partitions? If not, you can theoretically just reformat one
of the partitions and install linux on that. If you are using some of both
partitions,  you can use a util like FIPS to non-destructively repartition your
hard drive and "steal" some drive space from one or both partitions.

IIRC, you can also use Partition Magic to create a partition for linux, but I'd
let the installer reformat the partition before using, just to be safe.
