You can't put ntfs/fat32 on the same partition as linux.  On the same harddrive,
of course you can do that.  There's even a dool boot howto on tldp.org.  Not
entirely relevant but some very good info.  Backup your data first.  Follow what
your distro says in its installation guide for partitioning and partitioning of
multi-boot systems.  Some claim they can resize native ntfs/fat partitions.
