I don't recommend you do a permanent partition because once you do it, you can't go back. Partition Magic seems to work well for most people...

here is the url for instructions on Norton Ghost:
http://ghost.radified.com/ghost_1.htm

If you download and install PM 7, there is a PDF file that gives you instructions on how to parition. I used it myself and it was a piece of cake. It wont let or make you go wrong. Hope this helps.
