um, basically do a fresh install. But when you are about to do it, go to finder and then disk utility.
Select your hc click format, then go to partition, slect 2 partition then make the size you want.
alternatively get ipartition or one of the programs:

just be carefull as you dont want to delete your data without some form of backup.

Be sure to run the iLife 8.1.1 Update and the iMovie 7.1 Update.
-From folder: Home / "Library", drag out the "Cache" folder to the desktop (don't trash it just yet).
-From folder: Home / Library / "Preferences", drag out the "com.apple.iMovie7.plist" file to the desktop (don't trash it just yet).
-Restart.

Oh, and I just partitioned my HD without needing to even restart my machine.. Used Disk Utility btw.
Just did it, no fuss, 30secs later job done!
