Yeah, systemrescuecd has gparted, and that's what I used to move my other partitions. I already spent (literally) an entire day moving partitions, and I really don't want to do it again (even if it's overnight). I like how my HDD is setup, and I will be using Windows extremely rarely to where it's not even worth it.

lol yeah basically.
Arch wouldn't install (partitioner was yelling about my HDD), Gentoo wouldn't boot of my flash, and Slackware is like 3453 different CDs, so I don't see how I'd get that to boot. And I think slackware is a little too 'hardcore' for me anyway.
