I have a 60GB laptop that I am dual booting with linux and windows. They dual boot fine.

The problem is that I only need about 10 GB for Windows and about 10 GB for linux and want to use the rest for data as a NTFS partition.

The partitions are are weird now. I can't repartition the rest of the large partition.

I have already tried to used partition magic and acronic but they both can't reconize the partition type.


Here are some screenshots from Partition Magic

Can someone help me figure out what I need to do for me to get an extra partition out of that 40GB chunk? I think most of the linux stuff is part of that partition.
 
Here's the output from the linux box with a df -hal command:

[root@ToyBoat 2.6.11-1.1369_FC4-i686]# df -hal
Filesystem Size Used Avail Use% Mounted on
/dev/mapper/VolGroup00-LogVol00
5.8G 2.7G 2.8G 49% /
/dev/proc 0 0 0 - /proc
/dev/sys 0 0 0 - /sys
/dev/devpts 0 0 0 - /dev/pts
/dev/hda2 99M 9.8M 84M 11% /boot
/dev/shm 498M 0 498M 0% /dev/shm
none 0 0 0 - /proc/sys/fs/binfmt_misc
sunrpc 0 0 0 - /var/lib/nfs/rpc_pipefs
automount(pid2246) 0 0 0 - /misc
automount(pid2289) 0 0 0 - /net

I think the problem lies in some logial volumes that linux created when i installed Fedora 4.
