USe partition Magic.
I would agree with that, I would also suggest you create 3 partitions.
A fairly small one for each OS and a larger one for download's and other files.
I think you would also need a small FAT partition for bootmagic.

partition magic is dangerous tho... w/ an active drive.... you should format then make some partition manually when ur installing hte first os...
my friend messed up partitioning w/ partition magic twice on an active drive...

I highly agree with soul, partition magic is dangerous. I tried installing Linux on a second partition and it fucked up the boot file for windows and the computer wouldn't boot anymore. Then i was stuck with Linux and i had to reformat, a whole big mess.

so i should just make the disk into 2 partitions and install them on each partition in like dos mode or something? ok, that will work. just heard some people say partition magic 8 was good, but if u guys say it fucks up ur comp, ok, i'll install it the original way.

Power Quest Volume Manager (for servers) is the one to use. It's slow and thorough but it does a much better, safer job.
It's a bit hard to find but try emule.
