Hello, |
| 2 |
|

I've been handed a new amd64 portable (HP-8000), which must keep |
| 4 |
XP on it. To perform an installation, I usually use Partition |
| 5 |
Magic, which has worked very well to down-size the windoze partition. |
| 6 |
This system (suposedly) has another hidden partition that XP uses to |
| 7 |
restore the OS, if the XP installation ever get's corrupted. NO XP |
| 8 |
installation CD was provided. |

I was wondering if any of the opensource repartitioning tools |
| 12 |
have matured to the point I could used one of them in lieu |
| 13 |
of Partition Magic? |
| 14 |
|
| 15 |
In order to keep the XP installation: |
| 16 |
Does it matter if I setup Gentoo on the portable first, before going thru |
| 17 |
all of those windoze installation/initialization menus? |
| 18 |

Any wiki examples (gotchas) on xorg.conf or make.conf (as this is my first |
| 21 |
amd64 installation) are welcome. |
