The installer has a partitioning program, but I don't know if it will resize your existing partition. You may need to find some sort of talking rescue disk that includes GNU Parted to actually resize your Windows partition so you can create the new ones for Linux. You also may want to see if there are any Speakup-enabled distros that work with loadlin. I can't really help you much with that, since I have never used it, but I know it boots Linux from DOS or something like that. But the best thing to do is try to repartition your drive.
