I made a screenshot of Gparted, but I can't upload a jpeg in this forum. If anybody knows how to resize with GParted, then I would like to e-mail my jpeg :-)

I'll try to describe my problem: I boot from CD and GParted 0.2 opens up. My 2 harddrives are there. Everything's fine. I choose my 2nd harddrive. It looks like this:
/dev/sda1 fat16, Size 40 MB, Used 6 MB, Unused 33 MB
/dev/sda2 ntfs, Size 20 GB, Used 12 GB, Unused 8 GB (boot)
nicht zugeteilt (not partioned): 49 GB
/dev/sd3 extended, Size 44 GB, Used ---, Unused --- (lba)
/dev/sd5 ntfs, Size 44 GB, Used 19 GB, Unused 25 GB
nicht zugeteilt (not partioned): 8 MB

I want to enlarge my /dev/sd5 from 44 GB to 93 GB, by using the not partioned 49 GB. But GParted won't let me do that. I can only enlarge /dev/sd3 to 93 GB, but then i can't enlarge also /dev/sd3.
I think the reason is, because sd5 has to be at the beginning of sd3, but I can't move sd5, or I don't know how.
Any help is very well appreciated...
Markus
