how can i delete/create/change partitions in "computer management"

[TheWart]

during clean winxp setup, i created 10 8GB drives on my 80GB raid array using the windows setup. now, i would like to take the last partition and make it into like 3 or 4 for a linux setup (split the 8gb into smaller partitions). can i do this in the administrative tools->computer management->disk management?


btw i jsut remembered this flavor of linux needs to be earlier in the partition table, but the question remains the same

use partition magic if you have it

Huh? Why bother with PM if you just want to replace an existing partition with some new ones? Disk Management just uses standard Windows point-and-click stuff. Like, right-click-->delete a partition in the graphical display to remove it. Right-click-->new to make a new one. Or use the options in the menu. Pretty standard fare.
