I'm not sure how the formatting, etc is going to behave with those partitions out of sequence like that. I don't wnat you coming back upset when something else gets formatted. I'd rather see you use pdisk's "r" function and get the partitions numbered in sequence, before letting diskdrake touch them. I just tried it here on my HD, without committing the changes, and it nicely moved my former partition 19 to 10, pushing everything else out.
