I have just purchased a new computer with 64 bit Windows 7 Home Premium installed. NTFS file system. On the 1 TB hard disk, there is a 100 MB partition labelled "System Reserved(System, Active, Primary Partition)", and the rest is a single partition of 931 GB labelled, "C: (Boot, Page File, Crash Dump, Primary Partition)".
I now want to partition the large partition into 100MB for Windows 7 and apps, 100 MB for Linux OS and apps, and the rest as a working data partition used by both Linux and Windows. The Windows partition manager won't let me create a partition smaller than about half of the 931 GB.
Why is this ?
Can I do what I want ? If so, how ?
Thanks
