It depends on the distro how they handle partitioning, eg Ubuntu's default mode is to blow away Windows (expert mode was more Windows friendly) and Fedora allowed me to specify which area of disk to use. I'm impressed that Suse was able to shrink an NTFS partition! Fedora has a partition manager on the CD, but I didn't dare try resizing my Windows partition.
