This is Chris from Kearney - I came to the InstallFest and left somewhat
empty handed.
Just thought I should share with all of you I managed to successfully
resize my HFS+ partition using parted. I first had to disable
journalling on the drive by entering 'sudo diskutil disableJournal
/dev/disk0s3' from the Mac OS X Terminal, then I booted my iBook using
the Kubuntu 5.04 live cd to have access to the drive from Linux. After
that, it was a matter of googling to learn to use parted and all was
well. After I finished and saved changes, I re-enabled journalling by
typing 'sudo diskutil enableJournal /dev/disk0s3' from the OS X
Terminal. I now have nearly 8 gigs of free space to use for Linux on my
iBook G4!
