the setup dose it all for you, if you choose to partition your hard
drive
yourself, you can resize your windows partition, i changed mine from
80
gigs to 60 gigs so i have 20 for linux, once you have resized, you
should
have free space on the hard drive, so now you click new, to make a new

partition,you need 2, 1 about 1 gig of size in swap format, the other
use
the rest of the free space on this new partion, set the mount point to
../
hope it works for you!
