[Leaplist] Partitioning Gurus?

[Chris]

Urrgh - I talked a friend into installing Linux, for which he
volunteered his new Dell laptop, as long as he could dual-boot.
So I fired up GPartEd, all ready to slice and dice, and saw this:

/dev/sda1   fat16   47.03 MiB
/dev/sda2   ntfs    104.99 GiB
unallocated            7.84 MiB
/dev/sda3   extended   2.00 GiB
   /dev/sda5  fat32   2.00 GiB
/dev/sda4   fat 32   4.74 GiB        

Apparently, Dell hase all kinds of really wonderful stuff that
just has to chew up the available partitions. Thank you, Dell.
I don't know what these are there for - I suspect the fat16
is for some Dell Diag utility - and one of the fat32s is
probably for Ghost? - No clue.

Any suggestions that won't kill his existing functionality?
While I'm in there, I'd like to sneak in a fat32 partition for
files he'll use in both systems.

Cheers,

Chris
