http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/GParted Install from synaptic package manager. System--Administration--Synaptic Package Manager. In Quick Search put Gparted. This will allow you allow you to change partition size.

Please boot from Ubuntu live install cd (it have gparted) and use System→Administration→Partition Editor gparted
and do resize or formatting or deletion of partions from it....

Be sure to have backup of your relevant data...
