With Knoppix you can boot off the CD and resize the partition on your PC hard drive so you can install Linux. I want to do the same thing or something very similar so that I don’t have to reformat my hard drive to install YDL.

How would I go about doing this, or is this even possible?

Not exactly what you're looking for, but I think it'll get you there:

As always, you can 'man pdisk' for more info.
