When you install Mandrake, it will automatically check for
the existence of Windows partitions and ask you if you want
to keep the data on them. I'm told that Ubuntu and Debian do
the same thing; does anyone else have experience with this?

Point being that you shouldn't need to use an external
program to handle repartitioning.
