    GParted -- LiveCD

    Resize disk partitions (including NTFS) without buying expensive software (like Partition Magic). Just burn this to a "live CD" and reboot. Worked like a charm for me shrinking an NTFS partition.

    Sweet ... will definitely check this out next time I need to tweak partitions.

    Quoted: Need a way to resize NTFS partitions, mirror disk images, or otherwise muck about with disk partitions -- and don't want to use a proprietary package like Partition Magic? If so, the GNOME Partition Editor (GParted) is an excellent open source tool for the task. The GParted team released the GParted live CD version 0.2.4-2 this month, so I decided it was a good time to take GParted for a spin.
