boot to a live cd.  I like http://www.sysresccd.org/

use qparted and partgui to shrink one or more partitions, then expand 
swapl  I usually use lvm on install and you may need to do something 
similar to this: shrink the fs to a size under what you need but larger 
than your data set; change partition sized, expand fs to match new 
partition size.
