RAID reconstruction

It has become necessary to reconstruct a hardware RAID from level 0 to level 1.
 This is attached to an Intel RAID card.  If I run the reconstruction will Linux
automatically recognize the resized partition or will I completely bork things.

My current setup is two drives in RAID 0 at 67GB, a boot partionion of 176MB and
a swap of 2GB.  Reconstruction would resize the logical drive from 67GB to
roughly 33.4GB.  How will doing this affect the other two partitions and will
Linux choke on the resize?

Thanks.
Mathew
