Many thanks HJ,
This is the info:

The partition I wanted to resized was /dev/hda10 /data
It should be 7GB (2GB + 5GB extra from unpartition space), but, in reality 
it's listed only 2GB (the original size).

Well, anyway, I decided to clean-install my notebook from 9.2 to 10.1CE, while 
preserving /home to retain my emails and personal settings. And the result is 
amazing. Even my KDE session is preserved! There was a glitch though when the 
quick launch icon generated an error: "Klaunch can't start application from 
DCOP" (something like that), but after rebooting it was fine again.

It's 2am now and I'm tired, but I'm very happy. Actually the installation 
process only took 20 minutes, the previous 3 hours were for backing up data 
and email to my desktop pc. 

I love you, Mandrake :)
Thanks.
