My recommendation would be to use GParted 0.6.2. This is because GParted 0.6.0 contains two serious bugs that have been fixed in version 0.6.2. The bugs present in GParted 0.6.0 are as follows: Bug 623630 - Move logical partition to right yields invalid partition table on /dev/sda -- wrong sign

Thank you Peter for confirming that current git version of GParted does correctly list your firmware RAID array. When GParted is started, it invokes the command "dmraid -ay -v" to ensure that the /dev/mapper device entries are created. If you have found a problem in the boot log, then you might w
