Cool New laptop hardrive dual boot how to transfer info?
I'm tired of my 30GB drive on my laptop, and am going to get a much larger drive. What's the easiest way to get my dual boot (WinNT and Fedora 6), systems installed on the new drive without losing anything?

I did this by using a LiveCD to boot straight into linux.
Then some fancy program there allowed me to resize my primary NTFS part.
Then I installed parted a FAT32 drive so I could move stuff about and another part for linux.
Then I went ahead wid a fedore install with GRUB, simple.
