I used acronis (www.acronis.com) which is free for personal use (unlike
partition magic - I think). Worked fine for me when messing about with a
WinXP disk and resizing on the fly. I haven't tried to partition and
install linux after using it, so I don't know how helpful this pointer will
be.
Have a look at the site - 'free' trial at the bottom of the page.
