I would agree that is the safest way to proceed, although the
repartitioning of the hard disk as outlined by somebody else would
certainly work. However, even here I would urge you to have a complete
backup that you have verified is usable before you start. Makes that
sinking feeling in your stomach when you realize you've just partitioned
the wrong drive much less ugly. :-)
