Your best bet is Partition Magic. Resizing partitions, especially boot partitions is a little troublesome.

Well since the original partiton is 4GB you could backup/archive any pertinent data, which you should do before upgrading anyway, and then us PM to resize the partition to what you want/need. Then do the upgrade to Win 2K Server.
