question
I do not know if this is in the correct place but anyway.
here is my issue:
I have ubuntu hardy heron on a 20GB harddrive the ubuntu partition takes up the whole disk
the thing is for school i need to be able to run windows for a program just for the next 30 days approximently
i dont want to remove ubuntu completely i just want to dual boot temporarily,
is there a way i can shrink my ubuntu partition so i can create a small partition for windows XP ( i am saying like 5 GB) so i can run a program tha wont run through wine.
