I have a question about joining several partitions on my system.

this might be easier to understand, if I do it via a visual way

partitions on /dev/hdb

/dev/hdb1 300 meg (full) /var/spool/news
/dev/hdb2 300 meg (unused)
/dev/hdb3 100 meg (unused)
/dev/hdb4 200 meg (used) /usr
/dev/hdb5 200 meg (used) /var

can I join hdb1, hdb2, and hdb3, creating a 700 meg partition, without
destroying hdb4 and hdb5?

I realize that I would loose the info on hdb1 in doing that, but that is
ok. I just dont' want to loose the info on hdb4 and hdb5
