I think that FIPS will do what you want done. Its a
non-distructive repartationing program that I have
used and works great and its free. Do a search on
www.google.com, that is how I found it.

I'll probably just re-install, putting XPernicious on a 10G primary
partition, and Debian on a 10G extended partition with /, Home, and Swap
on logical partitions. Am worried about that "boot must be on first 1024
cylinders" thing, though.........
I appreciate the advice very much. Am re-reading Debian Install and
attempting to get all the driver and hardware info, which Gateway
soesn't seem to want to part with.....
