Title:
  creates partitions in wrong order

Status in Gnome Partition Editor:
  Invalid
Status in “gparted” package in Ubuntu:
  Invalid

Bug description:
  if you fill up your free space from behind, the partitions are also created that way, meaning that the last partition might become hda5.(in extended)
  If you now fix the partition order with fidisk, gparted does not recognize them any more.
  I think tahts also what happened, when I installed windows on my machine, since ubuntu could not get past initramfs after that.

  I suggest creating the partitions in their physical order instead.
