I currently have 2 partitons on my 6GB HDD, a 2GB one for Windows and programs and a 4GB one for documents. I have lost the CD Key for the partitioning software:(
So how would I be able to install Mandrake Linux into my current setup?

defrag your windows drive and use diskdrake (comes with mandrake) to resize and partion you old windows (none of your windows data will be lost)
