Hello,

i have a system where i installed linux sometime back with
partitioning scheme as follows

[EMAIL PROTECTED] simon]# df -h
Filesystem                                             Size  Used
Avail Use% Mounted on
/dev/mapper/VolGroup00-LogVol00           36G   18G   17G  53% /
/dev/hda1                                               99M   56M
39M  60% /boot
none                                                     248M     0
248M   0% /dev/shm

Now i need to install windows on the same PC. so kind of resize
/dev/mapper/VolGroup00-LogVol00  drive and then may be using fdisk to
create a new partition.

I believe there is something we can do with the below commands

[EMAIL PROTECTED] simon]# man lvresize
[EMAIL PROTECTED] simon]# man dmsetup

As i don't have a seperate media to take the back up and repartition
the hardisk to install windows, i can not take the risk of loosing
data by using above commands and hence looking for the expert advice.

Thank you.
Simon.
