Just like you would install any other version of Windows.
Boot from the DVD/USB, select custom installation and then click the partition you want to install to.

Right click the disk you want to partition and press shrink volume.
Set it to however big you want the new partition to be.
You said in the OP that you knew how to make a partition..
