Carl is it possible to do this:
I have a 100gb hd the whole hd is an ntfs file system, however I only
have 46gb of information I want to save ....could I shrink the partition
size with out loosing any of the 46gb data and then change the other
54gb to a an LVM ext3 partition, so that I can copy the 46gb of data to
the new 54gb linux partition.
I am hoping ntfsresize is a linux program since their is no NT OS just
an ntfs partition with my stuff on it.
if not this mount command got me to my music:
mount -t ntfs -o uid=admin,gid=admin /dev/hdb1 /home/admin/Desktop/windows1
But I would rather have it in linux so then I can share the music on my
home network a we bit better ;)

Thanks for your help, just one more question, if I have an NT4 file
system(that contains all my music) can I do a FAT32/vfat (same
difference) instead of NTFS?
FAT32 is available. (VFAT is NOT the same as FAT32.) What most people do,
and what I did, is to shrink the NTFS partition that Windows is on using
ntfsresize, and use some of the free space to create a separate FAT32
partition for data to be shared between Windows and Linux.
