First of all, I'm using a Seagate 80GB 7200 RPM Serial ATA hard drive. I have my drive in two main partitions: one with linux (redhat), and another with Windows XP Pro. The problem is I can't find my XP activation code, so I decided to just delete XP altogether and install 2000 instead. Is there a way to repartition my drive or erase the XP partition without disturbig my linux partition (I have my redhat set up just the way I want it, so i don't want to have to reinstall everything again)? Could I just install 2000 and when it asks where to install to select my windows XP partition (basically install 2000 over XP)? Would this get rid of XP? Can I use Seagate's Seatools to erase my XP partition, or would that erase all my linux data also?
