Toshiba 3.2GHz A30 Satellite

[Eric Parsonage]

Hi all

I just became the proud owner of a Toshiba 3.2GHz A30 Satellite. There was
no choice in the matter but now I want to partition the drive and put
prefferably FreeBSD 5.2 on it or at worst case some form of linux on it.

Does anybody have any experience with this or a similar model ?

Also what tools (preferable free since this is a one of event) have people
used to partition a drive with an existing copy of windows XP installed ?

Thanks for any help.
