Note: If you only have one hard drive on your machine and you're trying to modify it, you need to boot from a livecd in order to modify it. gparted doesn't let you modify partitions that are mounted by the OS. If you had a 2nd hard drive and were wanting to modify it, it would work, but you'd have to unmount it using the 'umount' command. Maybe that's why gparted won't let him do anything.
