Glad to have helped.
But I've one correction, sorry, I didn't read my message before sending.
Changing the blocks(the location) of your partitions would of course  
not destroy your hard drive, but the data on the changed partitions.

I got an idea regarding your partitioning system, but I didn't test  
this out, so just see it as a concept and read it carefully before  
using this way. Or even better, wait for replies if it works and don't  
use it^^.
  If you want to have a fewer amount of partitions without  
reinstalling debian, you might copy the
data of one partition onto root (/) and the  delete this one, don't  
forget to delete the partition from your fstab after that.
If you want to move your /usr to / for example, you would just insert  
a livecd, so that your system can use an own /usr and then mount  
your /. Then you would create a directory on that partition called  
usr. After that just copy over all data from the /usr partition to the  
usr in /.
mkdir /mnt/debianroot
mkdir /mnt/debianusr
mount /dev/hda2 /mnt/debianroot
mount /dev/hda5 /mnt/debianusr
mkdir /mnt/debianroot/usr
cp /mnt/debianusr/* /mnt/debianroot/usr/
fdisk /dev/hda
d
5
w
q
nano /mnt/debianroot/etc/fstab
remove the line /dev/hda5...
reboot

Have fun,
Marius
