CHS is mostly redundant on newer drives, most partitioning tools support LBA-based operations

I think the recommended approach in the dual booting world is to install Windows and resize the partition from there, i.e: shrinking it.. and perhaps even adding another partition from there as well, but adjusting the ID using FreeBSD's fdisk(8) to relevant identifier (..is it A5 in FreeBSD?).
