I am going to try installing on my laptop, a HP Pavilion dv9000.

My question is, does Fedora have a way during install to resize my XP
partition, or do I have to do it seperately?

TIA

While you're proabably best off resizing the XP partition and leaving
the rest as blank space on the disk using Windows-based tools, let me
present to you another option:

Backup all your user files and then install Fedora on the whole disk.
I've not looked back since I switched from XP to Fedora when it was
still Core 3, and it's only improved since then. Your mp3's, .doc's,
jpg's, mpeg's, and everything else will still be usable on Fedora, as
well as your firefox profile if you save it. Unless you use some
obscure-function program that has no Linux equivelent, then you will
find that your XP partition only wastes disk space.
