I am currently running Windows XP on a 10GB hard drive. I would like to install SuSE 7.3 on a partition of that hard drive, but during installation SuSE doesn't seem to recognize XP and offer me the option of resizing XP. It wants to use the whole drive. I've already reformatted my hard drive to put XP back on, and was hoping someone could help me out. Thanks!

dont know the answer your looking for but using fdisk to create a few logical drives in the extended partition before installing any operating systems gives you the flexibility for later. XP on the primary and say d-e-f-g all at 10% gives you room for swap and growth(linux).

there should be a program on one of the suse disks (havent looked yet) which lets you divide your disk in a "dos" window. looks for dos executables or floppy images. The best thing however, is to split your drive before you install XP, then format the second partition with "DOS" if you're using normal fdisk. Partition magic is good, but costs money. Linux should be able to detect the second partition and use that, just tell it to leave the initial partition alone, DONT install LILO to the MBR of the Hard disk use a floppy until you work out dual booting..
