No, gparted can be downloaded and booted directly, and it also comes 
installed on the live DVD. Or you can install it yourself and run it 
from Ubuntu.

However, to change or create the partition table on the drives, they 
must not be mounted so you must boot gparted for that.

Also know that when you change the partition table, all existing 
partitions are wiped away.
