I am currently using Ubuntu Studio 9.10 in dual boot with xp and wondering if it's safe to shrink ubuntu partition and expand swap partition without messing up boot sequence and grub.

Any help would be appreciated.
Thanks,
Owen

I don't see a problem with that, but just in case, I would back up all your stuff, in case it messes everything up. As long as you have enough space on your hard drive, you should be able to shrink the partition. But like I've said, just in case back up your things.
