 	When I went to install it on a machine with CentOS, they 
told me to use the "alternate" CD -- text only. I still seem 
to've managed to hose CentOS; but that was the first time I had 
ever tired either a text install or repartitioning. You'd 
probably do a lot better.

 	If I were doing it again, with CentOS still taking up the 
whole drive, I think I'd repartition first, doing only that, with 
Knoppix or a live CD for Gparted or Qtparted.
