-      <para>Many users wish to install &os; on <acronym>PC</acronym>s inhabited by
-	&microsoft; based operating systems.  For those instances, &os; has a

-      <para>The <application>FIPS</application> utility allows you to split an
-	existing &ms-dos; partition into two pieces, preserving the original
-	partition and allowing you to install onto the second free piece.
-	You first need to defragment your &ms-dos; partition using the &windows;
-	<application>Disk Defragmenter</application> utility (go into Explorer, right-click on
-	the hard drive, and choose to defrag your hard drive), or use
-	<application>Norton Disk Tools</application>.  Now you can run the
-	<application>FIPS</application> utility.  It will prompt you for the rest of
-	the information, just follow the on screen instructions.  Afterwards, you can
-	reboot and install &os; on the new free slice.  See the <guimenuitem>Distributions</guimenuitem> menu
-	for an estimate of how much free space you will need for the kind of
