    Creating a 3rd partition for Ubuntu in OS X Tiger...

    I have a Macbook Pro C2D with a 160GB hard disk. Currently 20GB of that is a Boot Camp Windows XP partition. I want to create a third partition of about 15-20GB to run Ubuntu. Is there a way to do this without deleting all the data on my OS X partition? Whats the best way to go about this?

    Also I looked in Applications/Utilities and couldn't find Boot Camp Assistant anymore, does anyone know where I can get it?

    Finally, I have VMWare Fusion. How does it work with ubuntu? Is it even worth partitioning and triple booting, or should I just run it all through Fusion?

    Thanks, - Zip.

    Hmm.. i think there is software to do this but yet I even don't know about that.. i usually format pc and then only i use to partition my disk.. and it deletes all the data in the partition..
