Another option could be ULTIMATE BOOT CD

Which as many useful "freeware" apps built on it and can re-size paritions...however remember once you change the arcitecture of the /boot dir things get whacky!

On the commercial side, I have used powerquest's DriveCopy with great success.
Once I got a Debian setup running right, I just "cloned" it around to new hard drives and resized it to fit. Same thing with Mandrake. Worth the $$ if time is money. But, I hardly use a hard drive based OS anymore, since DSL came along.
