[oclug]Carleton U installs

[Shad Young]

If you are using fat32 you can use fips or presizer to resize your
partitions. If you are using NTFS you may need partition majic... I am
not sure if presizer supports it.

Presizer is free and on the net...Google it. You will need a dos boot
disk though.

Then install your fav...
