  about GParted in Ubuntu 8.10 Live CD

  A few days ago, I want to increase the swap size.
  There are 3 parts in a hard disk.
  /dev/sda5 = swap (grow)
  /dev/sda6 = home (shrink)
  /dev/sda7 = root (move)

  And I didn't know it can be drag in the bar center to move /dev/sda7, so I drag its drag to move /dev/sda7.
  Then it got the folloing Detial.....
  Detial: (the listed operations)
  1. Move /dev/sda6 the the right and shrink it from 289.58 GiB to 275.68 GiB
  2. Move /dev/sda7 the the right and shrink it from 8.00 GiB to 3.70 GiB
  3. Move /dev/sda5 the the right and grow it from 525.50 MiB to 1019.72 MiB
  4. Move /dev/sda7 the the right and grow it from 3.70 GiB to 8.01 GiB
  5. Move /dev/sda6 the the right and grow it from 275.68 GiB to 289.09 GiB
  6. shrink /dev/sda5 from 1019.72 MiB to 1004.03 MiB
  7. shrink /dev/sda5 from 1004.03 MiB to 1011.88 MiB
  8. resize/move /dev/sda5 (new and old partition have the same size and positition. continuing anyway)
  9. resize/move /dev/sda5 (new and old partition have the same size and positition. continuing anyway)
  10.Move /dev/sda7 the the left and shrink it from 8.01 GiB to 8.00 GiB
  11.Move /dev/sda6 the the left and grow it from 289.09 GiB to 289.10 GiB

  When "Resize/Move" applyed, it make me CARZY.
  Because GParted do the "every" Detial in the list.

  GParted should pased the detial at first, than apply the new listed operations.
  Currect Detial:
  1. Move /dev/sda6 the the right and shrink it from 289.58 GiB to 289.10 GiB
  2. Move /dev/sda7 the the right
  3. Move /dev/sda5 the the right and grow it from 525.50 MiB to 1011.88 MiB
