Norman, before we get to that part (it is 'sudo install gparted' from a
terminal window BTW, then System|Administration|Partition Editor), have
you tried the steps that I've already suggested? If so what results did
you get?  Please don't do anything with gparted until you let us know
what you've done so far.
