Need I change the device sda2 into sda5?
I am with Ubuntu14.04 LTS. After deleting sda2 extended & sda5 Linux swap (as a part of increasing swap area), sda5 swap area changed to sda2.

/dev/sda2 partition 3787772 0 -1

Here the priority is -1. How can I change this sda2 to sda5 ?

If I change sda2 , Which one should I use? Live CD or Gparted or Terminal command? I tried using the first two. But I couldn't.
