If I recall correctly, libparted was not able to handle when there was only one unallocated sector between logical partitions (it expects at least two). In your situation there is only one unallocated sector between the end of sda6 and the start of sda7. The unallocated sector is used to store the Extended Boot Record for a logical partition. To work around the problem you might consider deleting the Linux Swap sda7 partition using fdisk. Next you could recreate the Linux Swap making sure to leave at least two unallocated sectors after sda6. Then you would need to ensure that the UUID for the Linux Swap matched the value in /etc/fstab so that it would automatically be mounted at boot time. Regards, Curtis
