This is compounded by the fact that whatever tool Anaconda uses to 
shrink/repartition existing system failed to work for me when I tried to 
install dualboot F16RC2 on an existing W7 notebook by shrinking existing 
Windows partition. Unfortunately I don't have a bug report on this one 
because I didn't take notes and didn't have connectivity (wireless 
firmware issue on Intel chipset).

Given that neither Anaconda nor parted/qtparted worked, is there an 
alternative workflow for dual-boot installing with pre-existing OS?
I finished the install by going back into Windows, and shrinking their 
partition from within Windows.
