My Win7 Drive C: is very full; I would like to enlarge it and have taken
off what I thought I could .
Most data is on Drive E:,which has plenty of space. The second partition
in the Extended area is what I would like to move next to /dev/sda2 to
enlarge it.
All thoughts welcome.
Problem area::
1 HD dual boot, Win7 and Ubuntu
with these partitions:

Units = sectors of 1 * 512 = 512 bytes
