Get Mandrake 9.1 instead.

Its installer will non-destructively shrink windows partitions
(including the ntfs filesystem used by Win2000 and WinXP) to make space
for linux in the size that you specify and will also automatically set
up a dual boot system when it detects the presence of a windows
bootable partition.

You don't need a third party partition program.
